Explanation: Is this coat hanger a star cluster or an asterism? This cosmic hang-up has been debated over much of last century, as astronomers wondered whether this binocular-visible object is really a physically associated open cluster or a chance projection. Chance star projections are known as asterisms, an example of which is the popular Big Dipper. Recent precise measurements from different vantage points in the Earth's orbit around the Sun have uncovered discrepant angular shifts indicating that the Coat Hanger is better described as an asterism. Known more formally as Collinder 399, this bright stellar grouping is wider than the full moon and lies in the constellation of the Fox (Vulpecula).

I would have thought Chris that it was obvious that my post was just in fun (the smilies were clues!).

To make it clear, I think the volunteer translators of APODs provide superb and praiseworthy support.

Everything Chris has ever said is totally serious and not a joke. It's because he never uses emotes.

Ditto for me.

You've got that avatar, though. It's hard to take even your serious posts seriously.

Thank you for the picture of the consolation. I also remember seeing it as a child but not knowing it's designation I called it "Cup On A String". I was viewing it from New York.
