I looked at Seyfert's Sextet, NGC6027, Monday morning in my new 18" scope. I could make out 3 galaxies 220x and thought I could see a 4th with averted vision. I pushed the mag up to 413x and could then definitely see the 4th. I couldn't even get a hint of the other 2 galaxies.
Is it possible to see all six galaxies with an 18" or do I need more aperature?
