Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

Wolfgang chose the wrong galaxy, apparently because the one at Javelle's place is so faint. However, it fits his (Javelle's) position to within 2 arcsec, and the faint star mentioned in the description is indeed southwest by about an arcminute. I would guess that the object's appearance on RealSky is somewhat degraded by the extra digitization so that it looks stellar.

The object that Wolfgang chose can be ruled out by applying Javelle's measurements to the galaxy using the opposite signs. Were it the correct galaxy, a fairly bright comparison star would be at the offsets -- there is none.
