Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 7829

48" (10/23/14): at 488x; bright, small, 15" diameter, sharply concentrated with a very bright core ~4" diameter increasing to an intense stellar nucleus.  The core is surrounded by a small round halo.  Forms a close, interacting pair (Arp 144 = VV 272) with much larger NGC 7828 just 0.6' NW.

17.5" (9/15/90): faint, round, extremely small, barely non-stellar.  Appears at first glance to be as a mag 14 star just off the SE end of NGC 7828!
