Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 4125

17.5" (3/20/93): bright, moderately large, very elongated almost 4:1 E-W, 2.5'x0.7'.  A very bright elongated core and nearly stellar nucleus dominates the galaxy with much fainter extensions but overall the surface brightness is high.  A mag 10 star is 2.4' ESE of center.  Forms a pair with NGC 4121 3.6' SW.
