Messier Marathon

I think that April will be too late, M79 in Lepus is sure to have set with Canis Major and Puppis not far behind.

One idea to tackle the Marathon with equipment is a properly alligned ETX-type scope, with the instrument ready in GoTo mode. Now, I don't know if that is considering cheating...

Not if you don't tell anyone.:laugh:

Anyone up to imaging all the Messiers (say a 1-2 minute sub) in the one night? Now that would be a challenge.
