Small Magallenic cloud

Small Magallenic cloud
This will have to be revisited as it looks very interesting once I can find the right star to track with. I must have been very close at 60 sec not much trailing as the others. the night was ruined by the remote that had a mind of its own I believe a broken wire.

PIP an up to date look at this cloud.

Small Magellanic Cloud  & 47 Tucanae.

I'm fairly certain it's a globular cluster, though at present I can't find the chart to give an ID on which one I'm afraid.

A good shot of the Small Magellanic Cloud, Steve. I'm looking forward to again having a clear sky here!
