Last evening, my brother Anthony & I observed two sections of the Vela Nebula with our 5" MAK. One part, which is called the Crescent Nebula was a really great site as well as the other part we were looking at. We also observed the galaxy NGC7331 which was a pleasant surprise. With my 10X50 binoculars, we were able to view both M31 & M32 galaxies in the same field of view. We also observed several open clusters & a globular cluster. Finally, we also observed the red star Myra & it was plenty red.

More edge on than expected as only the major axis was seen, perhaps due to the less than favourable conditions. A brightish core was observed and one sharp edge on the western fringe, suggesting a dust-lane. In better conditions with an 18" scope and a 2" Nagler NGC7331 and Stephans can be seen together which is a superb sight.
