Ah finally we come to the starfish glob! This was the nickname given to this glob by esteemed SAS member Kevin Dixon and it does live up to its name even in smallish scopes. The glob appears like a starfish as it has arms radiating out in all directions making it appear like a starfish. This is also one of the better globs for small scopes as it is easily resolved (even from suburbia) and in my opinion is second only to the following globs: Omage Centauri, 47 Tucana, M22, and the Ara glob. The glob is nicely resolved at higher powers even in my grab and go Orion 80ST and there are hints of the "starfish" in this scope at such magnifications. The views are just breathtaking in my C6 at powers above 150x. Need I say more???? The only problem is that it is quite a nightmare to sketch
