V = 8.4; Size 6
18" (8/17/04): at 225x, ~30 stars are resolved in an 7'x3.5' group, elongated N-
S. A couple of scattered groups of stars are to the south, but are apparently
detached. 7 stars on the south side form the outline of a perfect rectangle
with the eastern vertex the brightest star in the cluster (mag 9.5 SAO 34332).
There are no stars within the interior of this rectangle. The richest group of
stars is just north of the rectangle. (NGC-IC project)
