Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

IC 3334 may be just the galaxy, or it may also include the star to the south. The image on the print of the original plate is elongated north-south and clearly includes both star and galaxy. There is a fainter star to the east, but I do not see any trace of it on the print.

Until the original plate can be examined, I will keep both the southern star and the galaxy as parts of the IC object -- but note that I could well be wrong.
