Category: Open cluster.
Class:
Constellation: And
Data: mag 5.7 size 50'
Position: RA 01:56 DEC 37:40
Description:
Close to 5° SSW of Alamach. Very wide open cluster, 1° approximately in diameter, according to my estimate. I perceive 15 individual stars and this number increases in indirect vision. A weak nebulosity also appears in background. Another characteristic, portion N is more brilliant than the portion S. This distinction gives the impression of a lengthening whereas, actually, this cluster is circular form.
