NGC1980 (Bright Nebula, in Orion)
Observer: Michael Amato (e-mail: abigmick@aol.com)
Instrument: 5.1-inch equatorial reflector Location: West Haven, Connecticut, United States
Light pollution: moderate Transparency: fair Seeing: fair
Time: Wed Jan 26 02:30:00 2022 UT Obs. no.: 2325
Last evening, I observed the open cluster NGC 1980 below The Orion Nebula. It was a nice group of stars forming a nice open cluster. I also observed NGC 1999 which is a small but bright cluster just below M42 & M43. I also viewed the bright nebulosity around The star Rigel. It was really impressive.
