LL Pegasi is a variable star with a magnitude range of 9.64-11.60. It might be interesting to see if the spiral could be imaged with amateur equipment. You would need a scope with a long focal length like a C-14 and a long exposure at high resolution (1x1 binning). Its coordinates are: RA 23h 19m 12.0s and Dec 17d 11'30". -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Rodger C.
