There is only one coathanger, isn't there? If there was more than one, they'd find each other and get tangled up.

There's actually the mini-coathanger in Ursa Minor, but reading up on it, I see that's considered a "telescope" asterism. I'd heard of it, just wasn't sure where it was.

I was, of course, looking at *The* Coathanger in Vulpecula, but I didn't know that at the time. Guess I need a planisphere or a star chart (or my laptop - nah) when I'm bino-viewing.
