Corwin's Notes

=====

NGC 1895 in the LMC resembles a planetary nebula with a central star, but is 
much more likely to be an HII region.  Nevertheless, we've chosen its position 
to be that of its "central star."

Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 1895

30" (10/12/15 - OzSky): very bright, irregular HII region, ~45" diameter, enhanced with NPB filter at 152x.  Three mag 14.5-15 stars are involved with the glow, one centrally. A mag 12 star is 1.7' NNW.  NGC 1897 lies 8' SSE and the NGC 1873 complex (along with NGC 1869 and 1871) is 16' W.
