    Think this is a cluster of stars, but what's the C-shaped object bottom right?

    It is difficult to tell as this image is very fuzzy, with a lot of background noise.

    Looking at the SkServer image, this a star cluster from our own galaxy, and the 'C' appears to be 2 individual stars. Here is the wide view - impressive!

    Hope this Helps!
