Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 5732
24" (6/15/15): at 260x; moderately bright, oval 3:2 SW-NE, 0.9'x0.6', fairly weak concentration. Using 375x the galaxy has a mottled, irregular appearance and fainter outer portions of the halo sometimes become more evident.
UGC 9473, which lies 17' NE, appeared moderately to fairly bright, roundish, 0.8' diameter, gradually brightens to the center but no distinct zones at 260x. A mag 10 star lies 6.5' SW and NGC 5732 is 17' SW.
17.5" (6/21/93): faint, fairly small, round, 1.0' diameter, weak broad concentration with no visible core.
