Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

Wolf's position is exactly 7.0 arcmin north of the true position -- the correct object is marked on his plate. I suspect this results from a measuring error which placed the object 2 cm closer to the northern edge of the plate than it really is. See IC 3636 for more about the discovery plate.
