Keith that is impressive. It is almost invisible on the Poss 2 Blue image and also really dim on the PanSTARRS image server.

Fantastic drawing Uwe I had forgotten that we observed it in the beautiful Alps together.

Hi all I am posting for Mark Friedman...

I looked at this object Friday night under less than optimal conditions. The transparency was sub par due to smoke. The seeing was good so I was able to use high power. At 1040x the pair looked like...

Akarsh enhanced a PanStarrs g band Image that show the knot that I have been seeing over the last several nights. Last night I tried a Sloan G filter and it made the knot easier to see. It is...

Fantastic report Keith! NGC 4449 is one interesting galaxy. Lots to see!

Are you and Larry coming out to Fort Davis this year?

For me the part I could see and only a small percent of the time as it would pop in and out is the purple color in figure 12 of the paper. There was no structure just a smuts that would come and go.

I hope to try for the central star in the near future. I will report back my results.
