| Comment : | A couple of weeks ago I took a photo of the globular cluster NGC 6229, not I take a new with a wide angle setup.
I want to know what objects there are in its surroundings.
NGC 6229 plate solved,
credits Astrometry. These objects where found: Mostly galaxies but the "Her" objects are stars. |
