Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

IC 2030 was found by Stewart on the same plate as IC 2013 (which see). And like IC 2013, it does not exist, so is probably also a defect.

There is a very faint galaxy about two arcmin southeast of Stewart's position that has been taken as the IC object. However, Stewart's description ("cF, vS, eE at 135 degrees, susp.") makes this unlikely -- the galaxy is nearly round, so would appear star-like on the one-hour plate, if it appears at all. We clearly need to check this.
