Corwin's Notes

=====

NGC 7105 is one of the Leander McCormick nebulae found by Leavenworth; its
nominal position is particularly bad.  Fortunately, Leavenworth left a sketch
so that we can positively identify the nebula with MCG -02-55-001, about 25
arcmin southeast of the nominal position.

Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 7105

18" (7/30/03): at 257x appears faint, small, elongated 2:1 NW-SE, 0.6'x0.4', contains a small brighter core.  Situated just 33" SE of a mag 10 star that detracts from viewing!  This galaxy is located 25' SE of Leavenworth's position but was positively identified as NGC 7105 using the Leander McCormick sketch.
