Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 4181 is a galaxy with a bright knot on the northern arm. On DSS1, the object appears to be a companion galaxy, but the DSS2 and SDSS show it clearly as a knot (it is probably a superassociation similar to NGC 604 in M 33, or 30 Doradus (NGC 2070) in the LMC). The two objects are not resolved on the print of the original plate. See IC 3636 for more about the discovery plate.
