Steve's Notes

===== NGC 7014 30" (10/10/15 - OzSky): this galaxy is the brightest member of AGC 3742 = ACO S924 = Indus Group (part of the Pavo-Indus Supercluster). At 394x it appeared fairly bright, moderately large, sharply concentrated with an intense core, slightly elongated halo ~1.2'x1.0'. Two mag 13.5 stars oriented E-W are 1.2' N. ESO 286-049, situated 11' W, is the second brightest cluster member or equal in visibility to NGC 7014. I noted fairly bright, fairly small, very small and very bright core, halo elongated 3:2 N-S, 0.6'x0.4'. A mag 10.8 star lies 2.5' NE and the general field is fairly well populated with stars. PGC 506328 = 2MASX J21075463-4707025 is 3.7' N and appeared faint to fairly faint, very small, slightly elongated ~E-W, 18"x12". PGC 101199 = 2MASX J21083864-4709479 is 8' ENE and noted as faint, small, elongated 3:2 NNW-SSE, low surface brightness. A mag 16 star is situated at the NNW tip. PGC 130607, which appeared very faint, very small, round, 10" diameter, is located just 1.5' SW of ESO 286-049 and 12' SW of NGC 7014.
