NGC 7597
18" (8/25/06): fairly faint, fairly small, irregularly round, 0.8'x0.7', broadly concentrated halo rising quickly to a small, bright core. A faint double star lies 1.3' WSW. This galaxy is the brightest in the core of AGC 2572. The cluster is located within a group of 5 brighter mag 8-10 stars that detracts from viewing.
17.5" (9/23/89): very faint, small, round, small bright core. Located between two mag 14 stars 1.2' SW and 1.3' NE. Brightest of trio with NGC 7598 3.7' NNE and NGC 7602 3.2' ENE in AGC 2572.
