Observing Notes

Harold Corwin

IC 403 is a triple star -- the southern of which is very faint -- just south of Spitaler's position. He measured it twice with respect to different stars; the two resulting positions agree to within 1.5 arcsec using modern positions and proper motions for his comparison stars. He also verified the object on two other nights, so there is no doubt about the identification.
