Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 7485

17.5" (8/13/88): fairly faint, fairly small, slightly elongated oval NW-SE, bright core, faint stellar nucleus.  A close mag 15 double star is 1.8' ESE = NGC 7486.

Forms a pair with UGC 12358 4.8' NW (incorrectly identified in RNGC as NGC 7485).  UGC 12358 appeared extremely faint, very elongated ~E-W, near visual threshold.  A star attached at the southwest end detracts from viewing.
