NGC/IC Project Restoration Effort

===== NGC 2016 30" (10/14/15 - OzSky): fairly bright LMC cluster, large mottled glow, elongated E-W, ~1.5'x0.8'. Two or three mag 14.5-15 stars are resolved on the west end and perhaps a half-dozen additional mag 15.5-16 stars are resolved at 394x. NGC 2016 is situated in a gloriously rich region of the LMC with numerous clusters nearby including NGC 2028 11' E, S-L 674 9' E, BSDL 2212 2.4' SSE, S-L 535 3.6' WSW, S-L 519 8.3' W, H-S 327 12' WNW. S-L 535: fairly bright, fairly small, roundish haze, 30" diameter, mottled. Two faint stars were resolved on the west side. Located 1.5' NNE of mag 10.2 HD 269663. S-L 519: fairly bright, fairly small, elongated E-W, 30"x20", a single star was resolved. Picked up less than 2' N of mag 8.2 HD 37122. H-S 327: this is a very close pair of LMC clusters. At 394x the brighter western cluster (H-S 327W) appeared as a fairly faint, hazy 20" knot. H-S 327E = OGLE-CL LMC 520 is a fainter 20" knot just 40" SE. A couple of mag 15-15.5 stars near these two clumps may be members. BSDL 2212: moderately bright, small, round, hazy glow, ~20" diameter, just preceding a mag 13 star.
