Description

Last night is the last clear night for Phoenix here for at least 10 days.  I did a quick capture of this cluster while I was waiting for another nebula to rise.  This is another object I've never heard of but thats not new.  It's a nice but small cluster but in spite of the name, I'm not seeing any skull and cross bones.  Meh.... what do I know.

Enjoy!
