Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

IC 155 does not exist. It was found by Wolf on an early Heidelburg plate. The position has been copied correctly into the IC, and Wolf gives positions in the area three times in his short paper, so there can be no large error in his reduction or in publication. This, therefore, may be one of the earliest examples of a photographic plate defect being mistaken for a nebula.
