An awesome “object” for binoculars. I’ve kept coming back to this beautiful open cluster since I first got the astronomy bug. The color and flow of the group gives you the feeling of being in space. It makes me want to buy a rich field telescope since it requires a 55mm ocular in my 2800mm focal length C11 and you still don’t get the entire thing in the field.

In fact, I’m sorta considering selling the Celestron. Anyone interested in the OTA?
