Steve's Notes

===== NGC 7651 24" (1/1/16): fairly faint, fairly small, slightly elongated, 0.5'x0.4', very small bright core, stellar nucleus. Forms a double system with PGC 3085862 at or just off the south edge, just 20" between centers. The companion appeared very faint, extremely small, round, ~6" diameter. Several additional galaxies are nearby (part of the southern extension of AGC 2593). PGC 71344, just 2.3' W, appeared very faint (V = 15.3), small, round, 15" diameter. 2MFGC 17581 = PGC 1445975, just 1.7' NE, also appeared very faint (V = 15.2), small, elongated WNW-ESE, 15"x10". IC 5319 lies 5.7' ENE and was noted as faint or fairly faint (V = 14.8), small, round, 18" diameter. 17.5" (7/17/93): faint, fairly small, round, 1.0' diameter, very small brighter core, diffuse halo gradually fades into background. The companion at the south edge was missed. 17.5" (8/27/92): fairly faint, small, round, halo gradually increases to a small bright core. Forms a double system with a companion attached at the south-southwest end. PGC 3085862 is an extremely faint small knot, round, just nonstellar.
