Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 2614

17.5" (2/1/92): very faint, fairly large, 2.5' diameter, round, very low surface brightness, very weak concentration but no core.  Better view at 140x than 220x due to low surface brightness.  A mag 14.5 star is at the west edge.  First in a group of four including NGC 2629 20' E.
