Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 200. The galaxy 34s preceding the IC position is probably too faint to have been seen by Safford, and the description does not match in any case. The object 2 minutes of time preceding does match his description, and a 2 min digit error is more likely to be made than a 34s error. (My original note had both objects mentioned above "following" the IC position. In 2013, Courtney Seligman caught the error, and kindly let me know about it.)
See IC 1008, IC 1026, and IC 1030 for other notes on nebulae found by Safford with the Clark 18.5-inch that also share digit errors in their RA's.
