I received this question via private email, but I thought others might benefit from my answer, so I am reposting it here:
I own an Obsession 15 inch classic scope. When I look up Pluto for the date of July 21st 2023 it says that it is undetectable. To see Pluto I was told that you need a scope that is at least 12 inches or larger. Why is your software stating that it is undetectable? Shouldn't your software state that it is detectable? My limiting magnitude for my 15 inch scope is 15.5.
