Steve's Notes

===== NGC 7212 24" (7/30/16): faint to fairly faint, oval 3:2 SW-NE, 0.6'x0.4', very small bright core (round) stands out, occasional stellar nucleus. A mag 15.5 star is off the south edge [35" S of center]. The seeing was too soft to confidently see the attached companion at the northeast end. 17.5" (9/19/87): extremely faint, small, diffuse. A mag 15 star is involved at the southwest end. Located 16' NE of ·2857 = 7.2/9.0 at 20". NGC 7212 is an interacting, overlapping pair (listed as a triple in NED) with tidal plumes, but only a single glow was seen.
