Steve's Notes

===== NGC 7626 17.5" (9/14/85): bright, slightly elongated 4:3, brighter core (although less intense than NGC 7619), substellar nucleus. This is the second brightest in the Pegasus I cluster and appears similar to NGC 7619 6.9' W. 13" (9/22/84): bright, small prominent core, fainter halo, similar to NGC 7619. 8" (9/25/81): faint, small, bright core. A mag 6.5 star is at the south edge of the 40' field.
