DESCRIPTION_AND_NOTES: Near (20') NGC 6520 (OC) and B 86 (Dark Nebula).
This cluster is centered in a keystone of 4 stars, one of which is
double. The globular fills 1/2 of my 7' field so is about 3.5' in size.
Grainy in appearance with a dark delination around it - 2 stars
resolvable at outer perimeter of glob - foreground stars?  Amazing
bright globular discovered in 1987 by Djorgovski.  Appears to be near
11th magnitude. AKA: ESO456-SC38.
