NGC 6145
18" (7/29/08): faint, fairly small, elongated 2:1 N-S, 0.7'x0.35', weak concentration. First of 3 in a NNW-SSE line with NGC 6147 1.3' SSE and brighter NGC 6146 3.6' SSE within AGC 2197.
17.5" (7/24/95): faint, fairly small, 1.0' diameter, slightly elongated N-S. Similar size to NGC 6146 but lacks the central concentration. Only a very weak brightening with no core or nucleus. Forms a trio with NGC 6146 3.6' SE and NGC 6147 1.4' SE.
17.5" (7/5/86): faint, weak concentration, elongated ~N-S. Forms a pair with NGC 6146 3.5' SE. Member of AGC 2197.
13.1" (8/5/83): extremely faint, small, elongated N-S.
