Serpens Cauda

(All Positions are J2000)

NGC 6605  (18h 17.1m  -14° 58')
Discovered by JH (h2005): "A loose straggling cluster of stars 11...12m."
Reinmuth simply writes "no Cl"  Listed as nonexistent in the RNGC but in
Lynga #5 catalogue as OCL-47 = Lund 820.  JH's position is 1.3 tmin E of
the Lynga position.  Harold Corwin feels this ID is probably correct.

There is really nothing at either position on GSC although 2 tmin W of JH's
position is a scattering of bright stars.
