NGC/IC Project Restoration Effort

===== NGC 7133 does not exist. Bigourdan describes it as a "Pretty extended area, perhaps 2 arcmin across, in which I suspect some extremely faint nebulosity, at the extreme limit of visibility." There is nothing near his single micrometrically-measured position, northeast of NGC 7129 but a few faint stars. My guess is that this is another of what he would call his "fausse images," perhaps enhanced in his perception by the nebulae involved with NGC 7129 (which see). See NGC 7088 for a discussion on how such "nebulae" might arise at the limit of perception. Dreyer, by the way, took this number to be the first new object in Roberts's short note (in MNRAS 56, 380, 1896), so it did not receive an IC number. See IC 5132/33 (Roberts's second and third new objects) for that story.
