Steve's Notes

===== NGC 7429 17.5" (11/18/95): scattered group of 18 stars in a 6'x2' group elongated NNW-SSE. Includes 8 mag 9.5-12 stars and the rest are mag 13-15. There are no rich spots and most stars are scattered around the elongated irregular outline. The brightest two mag 9.5 stars are located near the center (SAO 34961) and at the SE end (SAO 34971). Located about 8' W of a mag 7.3 SAO 34988. Appears to be an asterism although listed in Lynga 5.
