Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 7126

30" (10/9/15 - OzSky): at 303x; fairly bright, moderately large, elongated 5:3 WSW-ENE, ~1.5'x0.9', faint outer halo, central region gradually brightens.  A mag 13.5 star is 1.5' SE and a mag 16 star is very close to the northwest edge, 0.7' from center.  Forms a very nice pair with NGC 7125 6' due south.
