(SNES) IC Clusters

["Ernest R. Evans" <pilotstar@mindspring.com>]

In my mini-quest to obtain data about IC DSOs visible in small scopes, I
checked out the "Selected Deep-Sky Clusters" listing in The Astronomical
Almanac. Unfortunately, most of the IC clusters listed there unfamiliar
to me are quite faint and beyond the reach of a 6". Some, however,
should be visible in FDO's 16".

The AN listing did give data on several "Collinder" clusters, which I
will check out when conditions permit. These clusters tend to be large
and fairly bright.
