Hello, all,
What in your opinion or experience is the minimum aperture necessary
for satisfying views of globular clusters and galaxies?
Thanks,
Bill Meyers

Globs: Pretty nice in an 8 or 10 incher. Brighter ones resolve reasonably
well.
Galaxies: I think Paul's "2 inches more than you have" is a good answer. I
spent the last 2 weeks out on the Navajo Reservation in NE Arizona. Some pretty
dark skies, 7300 ft altitude, 10 inch Newt. Looking for Stephen's Quintet, I
was thinking my 12.5 incher would have been better...
