Catalog of "Brocchi-like" clusters???
Does anyone know of a catalog of clusters similar to Brocchi's Cluster? I
know there is another cluster that's often referred to as a hockey stick or golf club. Just wondering if there is a list of other binocular objects that have interesting shapes. Thanks, Chris |

There is no formal list that I know of but these two searches should turn up what you are looking for. While you are at it, look up a finder chart for Kemble's Cascade. Bill |
