Re: [APML] Sagittarius Triplet

["Hap Griffin" <lgriffin@sc.rr.com>]

My observing partner calls this area "the foot".  If you flip it over so
that M20 is on top, the area between M8 and NGC 6559 looks like a foot with
M8 being the "ankle" and the patches in 6559 being the "toes".  The dark
nebula running through the region gives the foot it's outline.
