The AL has just added this Challenge to our flock of Observing Challenges:  https://www.astroleague.org/al-observing-challenge-special-observing-award/  This Challenge focuses of the controversy and confusion regarding the true identity of M102 (Messier #102).  Many mistakes were made in the initial observation as well as trying to identify its true identity by other astronomers.  We hope you will join us in June 2026 to relive the excitement.  This is your chance to see who you think is the real M102.
