Object(s): NGC 6760
Category: Globular cluster.
Class: IX
Constellation: Aql
Data: mag 9.1 size 2.4'
Position: RA 19:11 DEC 01:02
Description:
In Aquila, at ~4° S-W of Delta Sgr. Globular cluster of very low dimension, a very small nebulosity of round form. According to my estimate, this is one of the smallest globular clusters than I have ever observed and certainly of lower dimension than of the Messier catalogue. This small cluster raises a stellar core per periods.
