Scientific paper

The discovery of ten faint, dust-reddened stars, several of them probable M supergiants, in a 1.5 x 3 arcmin area of sky is reported. A very provisional distance for the stars is 30 kpc. If this is a galactic cluster whose main sequence can ever be identified in a color-magnitude diagram, it is a potential galactic rotation point at very large distance (longitude 26 deg).
