Location: Pic du Midi foothills, France
Session duration: 2 nights
Sky conditions: Excellent transparency after midnight
Instruments:
- 80mm refractor
- 100mm apochromatic refractor
- 250mm Dobsonian telescope
Targets:
- M31 (Andromeda Galaxy)
- Rigel

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.
