NGC 436

From within the city, and with nearby lamps, I tried imaging a modest target, NGC 436 from Cassiopeia. The ASI 224MC was working on the N150/750 mounted on the HEQ5.

NGC 436, Mel 6, Col 11 [open cluster in Cas] A few stars clustering together. Resembles NGC 582, 645, 659. Difficult to decide whether these should not be classed II. All the clusters here resemble one another though differing in extent. 8.8m ø5′ [wiki] [simbad] [photo-planner]
