Double Cluster in Perseus

Is it me, or am I seeing double. :sunglasses:

Clusters. Best part of the cereal idn’ it?

Back when I had a small 6" reflector, that was one of my favorite sky objects. Really beautiful.

There are corrective lenses for that, too. :wink:

-Thats my favorite target in fall & winter at 36-40X through a wide-field eyepiece on a wide-field telescope. Its an easy hop from this to the Andromeda galaxy and its orbiting companion galaxies and further over to the Orion Nebula.
-This is the kind of view which hooks people on astronomy, the double cluster only slightly less grand through home telescopes than the view from large research telescopes.

Except that everything’s green.

Another of my favourites too! Thank you, Denny.

Was waiting for that. :laughing:
