Little data to be expected, as the object is an optical alignment of a dozen or so bright to pr. bright stars in a dense

An easy target, though, given correct coordinates.
Earliest listing found for N6605 is by Reinmuth, 1926, who
lucidly declares it “No cluster.” Now, Reinmuth didn’t discover the object, I don’t know who did (we’ll let it slide);
BUT, even if Reinmuth was the discoverer, and he swore
that N6605 never existed, that he was delirious at the time;
it would not have helped us. In most cases, once Dreyer
created an NGC entry it lives and we discuss and photograph it forever, rather like M73 (yes, ahead); but I digress.
