Data: mag 8.2 size 7'

Description:
In the same field of M36 and M38. NGC 1907 is an open cluster of small size. In spite of the low dimension of the object, the observation with averted vision shows a small fuzzy spot. I believe to distinguish two individual stars but the cluster is so small that I can say if it is 2 stars or two groups of very close stars.
