Steve's Notes

===== NGC 5193 17.5" (6/2/00): moderately bright and large, round, 1.2' diameter, fairly sharply concentrated with a small bright core. A mag 12.5 star lies 1.2' N of center. Located 4.6' W of mag 8.2 SAO 204565. Forms a close pair with a faint edge-on (NGC 5193A) at the west edge [57" between centers]. The companion was extremely faint, very small, elongated, ~0.4'x0.2', required averted to momentarily glimpse. NGC 5193 and 5193A are members of LGG 353 in the foreground of AGC 3560.
