Description

M56 isn't exactly one of the best GC in the northern sky but it is still a fairly decent one and the ONLY one in Lyra nevertheless it is often overlooked. I find it, despite it being not too dense and relatively small, a rather nice one, with interesting bright streamers protruding from the core.
