NGC 411
18" (7/11/05 - Magellan Observatory, Australia): fairly faint, moderately large, round, 1.2' diameter. At 228x, appears as a low surface brightness glow with a very weak concentration and no sign of resolution. Located 5' NW of mag 8.6 HD 7031 and 19' NE of NGC 395. Viewed through thin haze.
18" (7/6/02 - Magellan Observatory, Australia): this fairly faint SMC cluster was immediately noticed in the same lower power field while viewing NGC 395/IC 1624 about 20' SW. At 128x it appeared fairly small, round, ~1.5' diameter, mottled but with no resolution. Located 5.3' NW of mag 8.6 HD 7031 and 13' ESE of mag 7.4 HD 6623.
