The Coathanger Cluster Cr399 (90CFT RMod).jpg
The aptly-named Coathanger Cluster, a more properly an asterism of stars in Vulpecula. A true star cluster, NGC 6802, lies at the left end of the coathanger arm. The field contains diffuse blue reflection nebulosity which appears to not have a catalogue number. The small round emission nebula at bottom is Sharpless 2-82. A very small round red nebula above the right end of the Coathanger is Sh2-83.
The field of view is 4.7° by 3.1°.
This is a stack of 10 x 6-minute exposures with the Astro-Tech 90CFT refractor with the 0.8x Reducer for f/4.8 and the filter-modified Canon R at ISO 800. On the Astro-Physics 600E mount and autoguided with the MGENIII guider. No filter employed other than a UV/IR Cut filter.
