Description

This object is an asterism located in the constellation of Draco. It's shape of a “W” strongly resembles the Cassiopeia constellation, in a "mini" form.

This object was first named by Father Lucian Kemble in 1994. The idea of a person being recognized for naming an asterism, especially in recent times, seems ridiculous to me, but him being a man of the cloth means I'll cut him some slack this time.

The stars of this asterism are all of magnitudes 7 and 8.
