No idea why it's called this but it's what Stellarium has named it ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯. It's also at the end of the [Kemble's Cascade asterism](https://www.reddit.com/r/astrophotography/comments/jzm9gp/kembles_cascade_ngc1502/), which is one of my favorite objects to view through binoculars (it's basically a straight line of stars over 2 degrees long)
Captured on April 9-11th, 2023 from my bortle 8 apartment balcony.
