Continue in the same direction for the same distance and you'll see another faint oval fuzzy. That is barely visible to the (young!) naked eye, with averted vision, on a good night, if you know exactly where to look. Its about half-way to the right hand edge of the image. This is remarkable optical performance for a mass produced portable technology. I am impressed. At two o’clock of Andromeda, there is a bright star.
