Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 6927
24" (9/1/16): faint, small, elonated 3:2 N-S, 0.3'x0.2', stellar nucleus. Faintest and smallest in a trio with NGC 6928 3.0' ENE and NGC 6930 (double system) 5.7' SE.
18" (7/11/10): very faint, very small, slightly elongated, 15"x12" (not as elongated as appears on the DSS). This is the faintest of the three NGC galaxies in the group.
18" (9/10/07): very faint, very small, slightly elongated N-S, 18"x12". Located 3' WSW of NGC 6928 and faintest in a trio with NGC 6930.
18" (7/29/03): very faint, extremely small, slightly elongated ~N-S, ~15"x12", low surface brightness. Either I viewed the core only or this galaxy is much smaller than this listed dimensions. Faintest in a trio with edge-ons NGC 6928 and NGC 6930. Located 3' WSW of NGC 6928.
17.5" (9/14/85): very faint, very small, almost stellar at 222x. Thin faint extensions 3:1 N-S are visible at 294x. Located 3.0' WSW of NGC 6928 and 5.7' NW of NGC 6930 in a group.
