The constellation of the Unicorn offers a number of open clusters. Despite the low declination of the sky this region is very crowded, you just move randomly within its borders to find many open clusters.
They make good at 48x and are composed of bright stars, but little is concentrated in the center and the periphery:
Ngc 2232 Ngc 2236 Ngc 2361
Ngc 2364 Ngc 2301 Ngc 2324
Ngc 2335 Ngc 2343 Ngc 2346
M50: "... stands a bright orange star, moderate rich ". NGC 2237/39/46
"Rosette Nebula", "... very nice open cluster, concentrated in the center and increasingly poor in the suburbs; lacked the nebula."
(M41, below the horizon, the unobserved )
A wish, clear skies for all!
