Description

If there is no wind, I can even strap the 8" Newton to the old EQ5 for a little side project.🙂

NGC 6366 is a faint globular cluster in the constellation of Ophiuchus. Its faint and reddish appearance is due to low compression and interstellar dust darkening the cluster. I particularly like the color contrast between the red star cluster and the bright blue star HD 157950.
