Steve's Notes

===== NGC 5333 18" (7/11/05 - Magellan Observatory, Australia): at 228x, moderately bright and large oval, elongated 3:1 SW-NE, 1.2'x0.4', moderately strong concentration with a bright 10"-15" core. Located 2.7' W of mag 9 HD 121119 and 11' N of mag 7.2 HD 121057. I observed 10 ESO galaxies in this rich Milky Way region (ESO 221-003, -004, -005, -009, -010, -012, -013, -014, -016, -020) from Les Dalrymple's article in S&T on the "Bow and Arrow".
