Steve's Notes

===== NGC 7081 17.5" (8/31/86): fairly faint, small, round, broad concentration. A double star mag 13.5/15 at 16" separation is 1' SSE and is collinear with the galaxy. Pair with UGC 11760 4.6' SE and NGC 7077 is 21' W. Located at the Pegasus border. UGC 11760 appeared extremely faint and small, round, visible only with averted vision. A wide pair of mag 11 stars at 1.0' separation lie 1.5' N. I probably only viewed the inner core region as the listed dimensions are much larger.
