Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 7410
18" (10/25/08): bright, large, very elongated 7:2 SW-NE, ~3.0'x0.9'. Contains a bright, round core ~25" diameter, which gradually increases to a very bright nucleus. At moments a stellar nucleus was visible that appeared offset to the southwest of center. The surface appears irregular or mottled. NGC 7404 lies 23' NNW.
17.5" (10/20/90): fairly bright, fairly large, elongated 3:1 SW-NE, well concentrated to a small very bright core, stellar nucleus. A mag 12 star is 1.8' NNE of center. Appears bright for such a far southern galaxy (observed from +38¡ latitude).
8" (7/16/82): faint, moderately large, very elongated SW-NE.
