On this page I collect my observations of the open star cluster/asterism M 73 in the constallation Aquarius.
The open star cluster/asterism M 72 in the constellation Aquarius is, according to Stoyan, one of the more obscure Messier objects, but worth visiting.
Size: 1' (Stoyan)
Distance: 2,000 light years (Stoyan)
Rating: * (Stoyan).
