Umair, Please tell me of some other galaxies which would show their whole 'structure' through my scope. Please list their Messier numbers. And if you weren't...
M31 may be more brighter and larger with my scope but i dont think that in cities one can make out any kind of detail in it. What was your equipment again? ...
