Notes:

This cluster just fits in the 17mm’s 50 arcmin field with some space all around to frame it. This is a loose, sparse cluster. There are say 20 lead stars (to perhaps 10^th magnitude) and around 50 or 60 fainter stars to about 13^th magnitude, but nothing fainter, down to the limit of the telescope. I know there is a red star near the centre but I don’t see it, my eyes aren’t good at reds. Other than a tight half-circle arc of five stars open to the E, I don’t see any particular patterns in the arrangement of the stars, contrary to others’ written accounts. The cluster shows up well in the finder scope.
