maybe magnitude 9, maybe magnitude 10, go and take a look. And the constellation signals for the blinking nebula. What makes this so interesting is dropping. The light that's giving out registers only on the rod of your eye. So that's your peripheral vision there at night. That's your night vision. So when you're looking at this initially what you're doing, you can do your telescope at any object. Your eye is picking it up through the cones. It's picking up the light that you would for a day light. The cones are sensitive for the light during the day, the brighter light. And the rods pick up the dimmer light. So what's happening is you look through it. Your cones briefly get a glimpse of it. And because of dim they no longer register it. But if you kind of look at the peripheral of your vision from them or you see a blink into existence.
