Steve's Notes

===== NGC 83 18" (11/22/08): fairly faint, small, round, 20"-24" diameter, weak concentration. Cradled by three brighter mag 10-10.5 stars off the following side with the closest 0.9' SSE. This galaxy is probably the second brightest in the NGC 80 cluster. 17.5" (9/19/87): fairly faint, slightly elongated NW-SE, broad concentration. This is the second brightest member of the NGC 80 group with NGC 80 5.3' SSW and the NGC 91/93 pair 7.0' ESE. Three mag 10-10.5 stars lie 0.9' SSE, 1.4' ESE and 1.6' E. 13" (9/29/84): fairly faint, very small, round. Three mag 10 stars follow. Located 5' NE of NGC 80 is a group.
