So I thought it might be a comet? 
I was between M7 and Shaula (Lambda Sco.) close to a star.
Could this be a comet, and if so is it a known one???
I hope it's not cloudy tonight so I can check it again, and do a sketch.
I should have done a sketch this morning, that'll teach me!

Hi Molly
NGC6441 is a mag 7.8 Globular Cluster close to a 3.1 mag star slightly south of M7
and between Shaula
What size scope are you using
I hope this helps
Cheers
