Corwin's Notes

=====

NGC 1443 is a star.  Tempel found it while observing NGC 1441, 1449, 1451, and
1453.  His description says that his nova forms a trapezium with N1441, N1449,
and N1451 -- indeed it does.  

Tempel probably has another star here, NGC 1446, that also made it into the 
catalogue.  See it for more.
