Steve's Notes

===== NGC 7141 30" (10/9/15 - OzSky): at 394x; very bright, fairly large, elongated 5:2 SSW-NNE, 2.5'x1.0', contains a very bright elongated core. The halo has an irregular surface brightness suggesting parts of spiral arms. A mag 15 star is just off the west edge, 40" from center. Located 13' NNE of mag 7.0 HD 207618. Forms a pair with PGC 190704 = 2MASX J21520060-5535447, 2.7' to the southwest. It appeared faint (B = 16.3), very small, elongated 3:2 SW-NE, 12"x8". A mag 14.5 star is 1.2' SE. No redshift data is available on this galaxy so it may be line of sight.
