Steve's Notes

NGC 7041
30" (10/14/15 - OzSky): at 394x; extremely bright, very large, elongated nearly 3:1 E-W, ~2.8'x1.0', high surface brightness, very sharply concentrated with an intensely bright, very elongated core. A mag 10.7 star is 2' SSE and a mag 10.4 star is 6' WNW. NGC 7049 lies 27' SE. These two galaxies are the brightest in a group including ESO 235-083 14' ENE and NGC 7014A/7041B 14' ESE.
ESO 235-083 is fairly faint, small, slightly elongated NNW-SSE, 24"x18", broad weak concentration. A mag 15.6 star is 35" N of center. NGC 7041A is moderately bright and large, oval 4:3 SSW-NNE, ~0.8'x0.6', slightly brighter nucleus.
