Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 3013
24" (4/20/14): faint, small, slightly elongated, 18"x15". Situated 2.7' SE of mag 7.9 HD 85030. A mag 15 star is 0.6' NE. Located 10' WNW of NGC 3021.
17.5" (4/6/02): extremely faint and small, round, 10" diameter. Located 3' SE of mag 7.9 SAO 61706 which detracts from viewing. Also a mag 14.5-15 star is 38" NE of center and confuses the observation. Situated between fairly bright galaxies NGC 3021 10' E and NGC 3003 21' WSW.
