Steve's Notes

===== NGC 4435 24" (4/28/14): very bright, moderately large, oval 3:2 N-S, ~1.5'x1.0', sharply concentrated with an intensely bright core that increases to the center. Forms a prominent pair ("The Eyes") with NGC 4438 4.4' SSE. 18" (6/12/10): at 175x appears bright, moderately large oval, elongated at least 2:1 SSW-NNE, 1.6'x0.8'. Sharply concentrated with a very bright, 20"x10" core and stellar nucleus. This galaxy is the NW member of the "Eyes" with highly disrupted NGC 4438 4.3' SSE. 17.5" (4/25/87): bright, fairly small, oval SSW-NNE, bright core, stellar nucleus. Forms a striking pair called the "Eyes" with slightly fainter NGC 4438 4.5' SSE. Located 20' E of M86 in the central core of the Virgo cluster. 13.1" (5/14/83): bright, prominent small bright core.
