Observations on Jan 25 2014

View M82 at 9:19pm MST with 10 inch dob using a 24mm to 8mm zoom 1/4 inch eyepiece (I viewed this object with 18mm). I see a bright dot right of the center of the galaxy (almost midway between the center and the edge) which happens to be  SN2014J Type Ia Supernova. Seeing conditions seemed average and light pollution didn't prevent it's viewing. Viewed from my back deck in Idaho Falls.
