Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 1043

17.5" (1/9/99): extremely faint, very small, round, 15" diameter.  I just glimpsed the core as a very small, round, knot with a mag 14.5 star 0.4' SSE of center.  The small, thin extensions of this edge-on spiral were not seen.  Located 14' SE of NGC 1038 and 20' SE of IC 1827 (on a line).
