    I could just about find it, and make a measurement – however it was quite challenging as there was a lot of moisture in the air and it was very low on the horizon. I couldn’t see it in my 8×56 binoculars, but found it in my 8″ Dob and 30mm eyepiece (40x). I will upload a record.

    Coincidentally I am in the last week of my holiday in Cornwall. And also coincidentally I have brought my telescope! The skies here on the Helford estuary are very dark, especially to the South, but there is a lot of high cloud tonight in the South.
