Description

In the final hours of the night of 11th of February I decided to point my scope to this gem in the night sky.

I had saved Abell 39 in my planetarium app as a possible target. I won't be able to get much more details from my 400mm and 1.94" resolution but I am glad that I visited it. It shows some very faint details...

Abell 39 is only 2.8 archmin in size. It is situated in Hercules with visual magnitude of 12.89.

Clear skies,
Ivan
