Observation Session – 05 June 2010

Location: Tenerife – Teide National Park, Spain

Session duration: 2 nights

Sky conditions: Very dark sky (Bortle 2–3), light wind

Instruments:

  • 7×50 binoculars
  • 80mm refractor
  • 300mm Dobsonian reflector

Targets:

  • Mars
  • M45 (Pleiades)
  • M13 (Hercules Cluster)
  • Albireo

Observation notes:

Transparency improved after midnight and allowed longer visual work on faint deep-sky targets.

The larger telescope resolved dense clusters cleanly, while the refractor was used for wider fields and comparison views.

Lucille added that the dreams were becoming more precise, often repeating specific constellations and the same sensation of being observed.

Members present: Maxime Dallois, Lucille Godefert, Ayoub Berrabeh, Adama Traoré, Marc Lefèvre, Claire Dumont
