Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

IC 4079 has a star superposed preceding. As noted by Wolf, it was this star that he measured. IC 4080 (which see) is just northeast. These galaxies are in the core of a poor cluster; there are other fainter galaxies nearby. See IC 3636 for more about the discovery plate.
