Description:
Easy to locate...somewhat northeast of Denabola by a few degrees. Very 
circular and mollted in appearence...even a hint of some stars being resolved. 
Brighter towards the central core. I can see how a larger apeture would be 
needed to view this object as it is quote small in its overall size (4")
