Palomar 8 / C1838-198 (Updated July 2014) RA: 18:41:29.9 DEC: -19:49:33 (J2000) No known variables. ======================================================================== Supplementary Notes Armandroff (1988) obtained CCD images in the V,R,I bands to compare the CM diagram of Pal 8 with that of 47 Tuc. He found that the HB of Pal 8 lies entirely redward of red edge of the instability strip, characteristic of a metal rich cluster. It does not extend as far to the blue as the red HB of 47 Tuc. ========================================================================= References Armandroff, T.
