Bright and very dense GC of approx 5' size. At 342x I could resolve a few very faint 
stars around the edge of the cluster. The center did remain unresolved even 
though it appeared granular. Nice bright globular that must be huge but very far 
from the us. The brightest stars are registered with mag 15,1.
