Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 3710 is a low-surface-brightness dwarf spiral in the Virgo Cluster. Its structure is similar to the LMC's, but the bar is much smaller, and the knot corresponding to 30 Doradus (NGC 2070) is much larger (though still of low surface brightness). So, the positions for this galaxy are all over its face. I have, as usual, provided the position for the approximate center of the bar.
