Description

This should have been in fact an image of NGC6727, the Coronet Cluster. One digit made all the difference. It was late at night and so on so forth. Bottom line, I didn't double check the coords and I threw good money (at the current rate about 2 1/2 pints of stout at the local) down the drain. I mean, the Teapot Handle?! 48 square degrees of pristine sky and not single worthwhile object in sight. Not one! Not even an asteroid!
