Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 7090

11" (8/8/04 - Haleakala Crater): moderately bright, fairly large, edge-on 5:1 NW-SE, 4.0'x0.8', broad concentration but with no distinct core.  Irregular surface brightness with a mottled appearance at 127x.  Appears to fade suddenly in a couple of spots (possibly due to dust) including just SE of a mag 14 star that is superimposed on the SE side.  Viewed at an elevation of 13Ё.
