Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 7237
24" (9/27/14): At 375x appeared faint, very small, round, fairly low even surface brightness, 18" diameter. NGC 7237 is the middle of three collinear galaxies (and second brightest) in the compact Arp 169 triplet with slightly brighter NGC 7236 0.6' NW and very compact NGC 7237C 0.6' SE. NGC 7237C appeared very faint, extremely small, round, ~5" diameter (core), not difficult with averted. Arp 169 forms a very similar triplet as Arp 170 (also in Pegasus).
17.5" (8/20/88): fainter member of a double system with NGC 7236 35" NW of center. Very faint, extremely small, round. In a common halo with NGC 7236. NGC 7237C, an extremely faint anonymous galaxy, is also just 38" SE! This galaxy appeared extremely faint and small, round, at visual threshold. Located 2.8' NE of a mag 10 star.
