  1. NGC 6802

    NGC 6802 lies at the east end of the "Coathanger" cluster within a keystone of four 9th to 11th magnitude stars in the constellation Vulpecula. The two stars at the northern corners of the keystone have widely separated companions. The cluster appears as a faint oval patch of haze in which seven stars are resolved.
