NGC/IC Project Restoration Effort

===== NGC 1060 24" (2/7/16): very bright, large, sharply concentrated with an intensely bright core that increases to the center. The much fainter halo gradually dims and is slightly elongated WSW-ENE, ~1.6'x1.3'. Brightest in a group of 10 galaxies (including 5 NGCs) in a 20' field. The two closest galaxies are NGC 1061 2.5' N and PGC 213071 3' SSE ("extremely faint, small, roundish, 12"-15"). On the south side of the cluster is MCG +05-07-034 ("fairly faint, fairly small, round, 20" diameter, fairly low even surface brightness. Two mag 14.8/15.1 stars at 11" separation lie 1.7' SE. Located 9.6' S of NGC 1060). CGCG 505-042 is 4.9' further east-southeast. It was logged as moderately bright, fairly small, elongated 3:2 E-W, 21"x14", fairly high surface brighness. A mag 14.5 star is 1.5' E. 18" (1/26/11): bright, fairly large, elongated 4:3 WSW-ENE, large low surface brightness halo extends 2.0'x1.5'. Sharply concentrated with a large, very bright core that is well concentrated to the center. Brightest in a group of 5 NGC galaxies including NGC 1061 2.5' N, NGC 1057 4.8' NW, NGC 1066 8' NE and NGC 1067 9' NE. Located 10' WNW of mag 7.4 HD 16954. 17.5" (11/27/92): moderately bright, fairly small, round, halo gradually brightens to small bright core, stellar nucleus. Located 10' WNW of mag 7.7 SAO 55822. Brightest in a group with NGC 1061 2.5' N and NGC 1066 8' ENE. Huey (22" @230 and 383x): Very bright round glow with diffuse edges, 1.3' across.ÊGradually then suddenly brighter center.
