NGC 7476

17.5" (10/20/90): very faint, fairly small, possibly oval N-S, bright core.  Forms the southern vertex of an isosceles triangle with mag 7.7 SAO 231425 3' NW and mag 7.2 SAO 231432 4' NNE.  Located 32' ENE of mag 4.3 Theta Gruis.  This is an exceptionally far southern galaxy for viewing from Northern California.
