Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

This is often assumed to be equal to IC 1828 = NGC 1036 (which see). This error is caused by a typo in Javelle's declination in the Nice Observations, Vol. XI, page D11 for J940 = IC 1829. The typo (a "76" in place of a "71" for the north polar distance of J940) has put the IC position 5 degrees north of the true position. Re-reducing Javelle's data shows that IC 1829 is CGCG 439-026. This is another of the errors that Malcolm Thomson tracked down years ago.
