Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 2545

13.1" (1/11/86): moderately bright, fairly small, almost round, gradually increases to a small brighter core.  A mag 14.5 star at the NNW edge 1.0' from center is similar to the substellar nucleus.  Located 3.9' ESE of a mag 9.5 star at the west edge of the Cancer I galaxy cluster.
