NGC 7016
24" (8/14/15): at 375x; fairly faint, fairly small, round, ~20" diameter, contains a brighter core. In a group with NGC 7018 3.2' NE and NGC 7017 1.5' SE.
24" (9/27/14): faint, very small, round, 18" diameter. Brighter NGC 7017 (double system) is just 1.5' SE with NGC 7018 (also a double system) 3.2' NE.
18" (8/25/06): faint, small, round, 25" diameter, weak even concentration to a very small brighter nucleus that is occasionally stellar. Located 3' SW of NGC 7108 in the core of AGC 3744.
17.5" (8/21/98): first of trio with NGC 7017 and NGC 7018 within AGC 3744. Appears very faint, very small, round, 20" diameter, very small brighter core. Forms a close pair with NGC 7017 1.5' SE.
17.5" (7/21/90): faint, small, round, bright core. Forms a close similar pair with NGC 7017 1' SE with brighter NGC 7018 3' NNE.
