Similarly, while in downtown Chicago the bar can be a few minutes from the car (once you find the parking), in this case the star was probably a few minutes from the bar, not "car". Seriously, it's a great target, Dragan. I viewed it just last week again and again was not satisfied with the visibility of the finer features. The night was excellent (SQM 21.78) but I got to this galaxy late, when it was almost even with Polaris. This 10 years after first seeing it with a large scope, a glaring gap in my study of galactic structure.
