Instruments: 20.3-cm SCT (C203), 10x50 binoculars (B10x50) AAVSO sequences unless noted. Partly cloudy at first, then clear. First good night for a long time. Observations from Aug 25.88-25.89 UT were made in a quite dark sky from Blindern, Oslo during a power failure which affected a major part of Oslo.
