Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 5633

17.5" (5/27/95): fairly faint, elongated 3:2 N-S, 1.2'x0.8', moderate surface brightness, very weak concentration.  A right triangle of evenly matched mag 12 stars follows with the closest star 2.6' E.  Just off the north vertex is a very faint close double.

8" (4/24/82): faint, small, slightly elongated.
