Come to think of it, I cannot think of a better region of sky for Open Clusters.

I'll have to go back to 2452 and see if I can find the cherry in the hamburger. Hmmm... strange culinary thought that. The worst thing about the heat is that it's impossible to cover up enough to keep the mozzies at bay. the only problem with hoping for winter is wishing away some great constellations and they already seem to march across the sky so quickly.
Yeah give 2452 another crack and concentrate on the southern lobe, you'll likely pick up a bright almost stellar patch in it. Get the barlows out if seeing cooperates
