Earlier this year I stumbled across an extremely red star in a friend's 17.5". I didn't note the location. Has anyone viewed 21185 through a similar telescope? I'm curious as to whether this might have been what I saw. See July 2002 S&T p.42.
Also, the best(only?) view of the CA nebula I've had was through a UO 11X80 finder with a H-Beta filter, under dark skies. Anybody tried a similar combination?
