Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

There is a defect superposed on the northwestern side of the galaxy's image in the DSS1R image. I had mistaken it for a companion or a superposed star, but it appears in no other image that I've looked at. Since it is not in the DSS1B image, it is very unlikely to be a supernova as the red and blue DSS1 plates were taken in pairs on the same nights.
