Double Cluster in Perseus


This beautiful object is easily seen in binoculars or a small telescope.
Better in low power - needs a wide field. It is fairly far north on the
celestial sphere, so although it is an autumn object, it is also visible
in winter and spring, and also late summer before dawn.

Located between the top of Perseus and Casseiopeia.
