Observation 5

Sunday October 14th, 2012
8:30pm
East Laurel Road
Clear dark skies with minimal clouds and a New Moon

Although City lights dimmed most of the stars I could see, the Summer Triangle was clearly seen overhead.  In the East to Northeast I saw the Great Square of Pegasus, and further North, the constellation Cassiopeia. Both were very clear.  I tried to look to the left to see Cassiopeia's king Cepheus, but it was only faintly visible.
