IC 1171 is a star. Bigourdan's estimated position is pretty good. While there is an asterism of three or four stars a couple of arcminutes to the south, there is no way to stretch his position to fit it. His RA and Dec offsets are consistent with his estimated position angle and distance, too; this rules out a typo in the declination.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
