IC 3182 is just two stars, probably with a defect or random plate grain adding the appearance of nebulosity. Schwassmann's description reads "vF, S, li[ke] 2 F ** surr[ounded by] nebulosity, alpha delta :". There is a third star about 25 arcsec to the south that may have been involved with the image, too.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
