Steve's Notes

===== NGC 5322 18" (5/14/07): very bright, fairly large, oval, 2.5'x1.75'. Sharply concentrated with a very bright, 40" core that increases to the center. Two or three mag 14-15 stars are superimposed on the halo including one to the south and one to the east of the core. 17.5" (4/13/91): very bright, moderately large, unusually bright compact core, substellar nucleus, fainter halo elongated 3:2 E-W. A mag 14 star is at the south edge of the core within the outer halo and 20" from the center. 8" (5/21/82): bright, moderately large, small bright nucleus, almost round.
