This feature was shown to be a Bok globule which is along the line of sight to Cygnus X-3. We report on observations made with Submillimeter Array (SMA) to search for molecular emission from this globule, also known as Cygnus X-3's \"Little Friend\" (LF). We have found a counterpart in both 12CO (2-1) and 13}CO (2-1) emission. From the velocity shift of the molecular lines, we are able to find two probable distances based on the Bayesian model of Milky Way kinematics of Reid et al. 2016.
