Jay,
I have not tried to see that one with the Grim. When I have an opportunity I will try. Erik I was doing some research on NGC 6441, a rather unique globular
cluster that doesn't really fit either Oosterhoff classification (see http://www.iop.org/EJ/abstract/1538-3881/122/5/2600 and pick the PDF or HTML to read the article) and knowing that a planetary sits in the center of the globular, I did some research into it (loving planetary nebulas).
What I found interests me, a lot. I know that even with the 14 inch truss dob I own I have no chance for viewing JaFu2. I am just wondering if the Grim out at SPOC could or has captured this object or someone else here has using a large aperture scope? I have seen NGC 6441 but my fear on the planetary is that it sits too low on the southern horizon to capture even with a large scope (looking through all the atmosphere and junk), though the first week of August or last week of July could be worth a shot.
Here's an interesting site on it http://www.blackskies.org/ JaFu_challenge.htm where they label it and JaFu1 as possibly the "ultimate" planetary challenges; not sure about that and would love to hear others opinions on that.
Anyway, thanks for putting up with my interests and in replying.
Jay
