Stephenson clusters (was RE: (IAAC) Obj: Stephenson 5 - Inst: Televue 102, 102mm, f8.6)

Paul -

Actually there is a cluster Stephenson 2 as well (at 2000.0, 18 36 39.6 
-06 04 26, diameter ~4.5').  It was reported by Stephenson in 1990, and is 
a mostly infrared cluster.  See Steve Hynes' and my book Star Clusters, p. 
98 for data and p. 201 for a couple of paragraphs of more detailed 
information.

I believe that there is only (1) item in the Stephenson catalogue, that 
would be
Stephenson 1, the Delta Lyra cluster.
