Corwin's Notes

=====

NGC 1136 = NGC 1135, which see.  RC3 and ESO give the correct position.  RC2 
and RNGC are wrong.  The incorrect position comes from JH who made a five 
arcmin error in his NPD.

Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 1136

30" (11/4/10 - Coonabarabran, 429x): fairly bright, moderately large, slightly elongated E-W, ~1.5'x1.2'.  Sharply concentrated with a fairly small (20") very bright core surrounded by a much fainter halo.  Located 7' NW of mag 8.3 HD 18003.  ESO 154-018 (misidentified as NGC 1135 in RNGC, ESO and PGC) lies 3' NNW.
