x185 27' TF, x247 20' TF

NGC 1185 Galaxy *

This is a very small lengthened oval eg in about PA 30 nearby to a very faint star of mag 15.5 which is to its SE. 45" x 15 in about PA 30 grows broadly and slightly to centre without any visible core, zones or nucleus. Fairly faint and quite low SB.

-76 is a small but reasonable SB eg in about PA 45. Small, seems like an elong spiral only 40" x 15" grows mod and broadly to centre where the SB is quite good. At first glance it almost loos stellar because it has a small mag 14th mag non*ar stellaring nucleus. MCG-3-8-57 is 30' E.

-57 is a face on round spiral that appears 1.5' diameter and round. Good size, mod low SB. 4' further E is a mag 12.5 *. Ill defined edges grows broadly and slightly to centre with no defined core. SB is low but okay.

The brightest of this group is NGC 1200. Four are in a compact rectangle while -04 is to their SE by 20'.

-00 is a fairly small, reasonable SB round eg about 1.25' diameter or maybe a little bigger, growing slightly to centre where there is a small round mod brighter spot core. It has a faint mag 15.5 * just on the edge of the halo to the S that sky-view indicates is USNOA2 0750-00685292 with a magnitude of 16.4 -- that seems too faint to me. IC 285 is about 3' away SE.

-85 is a somewhat fainter slightly elong in PA 120. 30" x 20" it has somewhat lower SB and is only slightly brighter at centre with no core or nucleus. -96 is 6' SW of -00.

-96 and -95 are about 2' apart with -95 due N of -96, there is a mag 13.5 * almost between them. -96 is the brighter of the two, 40" diameter, round and grows slightly to centre without zones but has a compact, faint, almost stellar spot nucleus. -95 is only about 20" diameter, round and has quite low SB growing weakly to centre.

-04 is a slightly elong eg that is almost on top of a very distracting 12th mag * that is in turn, the brightest in a small, long triangle to the eg's S. Seems about 30" x 15" in about PA 90, faint and very LSB brightening weakly to centre -- this is hard to see because of the mag 12 * just S of centre off the flank.

This eg is found to the SSW by 4' from a wide mags 11, 12 pair that is in PA 0. Very small round eg probably only 20-30" diameter. Fairly non-descript, round grows slightly to centre with no evidence core or nucleus. Quite faint and pretty LSB.

These two are found between *s of mag 8 & 11 aligned SW to NE and a little brighter to the closer star. x185 shows a very small round eg that the DSS shows to be two tiny eg in contact aligned in PA 10. At x247 the northernmost is the smaller of two tiny round halos with the southern most being slightly the larger and has a whiff of a threshold mag stellar nucleus. The larger is about 15" diameter and the smaller 10" dia.

Both of these eg are very faint and the -45 is extremely faint, they are N-S of each other sep by <1' with -06 to the N. -06 is very small and faint, maybe 20" diameter round halo growing weakly to centre with very low SB.

-45 is even smaller, about 15" diameter spot of ephemeral haze only occasionally visible. Extremely faint.

-14, -15, -16, and -50 are components A-D of Hickson 23. Component E is just N of -15 on the DSS and wasn't visible. -08, -80 and -48 are nearby but not directly associated with the Hickson group of 4 visible eg.

-08 Is the brightest of this group and is found just S of a small RA tri of *s mags 11-12. Pretty good SB quite elong eg in PA 60. Oval 1.5' x 15"grows broadly and moderately to centre without structure but the inner regions have fairly good S.B. -14 is 10' E. and it has -15 4' SE and -16 a further 3' SE.

-14 is in PA 45 an elong halo, 50" x10"growing slightly to centre. Eg is really quite faint. While it has no defined core zone, it is moderately brighter at centre.


-15 is in PA 15 an oval shape 40" x 20" with a very faint stellaring in the centre and has the lowest SB of this line of 3.
The outer halo in the DSS is not visible.

-16 is in PA 75 and while it is faint has reasonable SB but very tiny 20" x 5" splinter.

-50 is a small, round splodge of haze 5' SW of -15, 20" diameter with no structure and is very faint and LSB. SW by 10' from the Hickson group eg's is IC 1880.

-80 is close W from a mag 12 * and is a pretty LSB eg, oval elong in PA 30, 50" x 40" growing weakly to centre where there is a compact mod brighter spot in the centre. Another 5' SW is -48 that is also a very, very faint eg. A spot of gossamer 20" diameter, weak central brightening, no structure.

this e is found a little W and N of the mid-point of a line running SSW-NNE between mags 12 *s. Fairly faint, slightly oval about 40" x 30" in about PA 90, fairly low SB small halo growing slightly to centre with an occasional whiff of a very faint *ar nucleus at centre.

These four eg run in an almost evenly spaced, slightly curved 20' long line that runs from N-S -25, -23, -21 & -86. All four are fairly similar in brihtness and surface brightness.

-86 is a fairly faint eg a fraction N of a mag 13.5 *. Small, perhaps slightly oval halo in PA 0. 30" diameter growing broadly and slightly to centre but with no visible core or nucleus.

-21 is just N of the hypotenuse of a RA tri of 11 & 12 *s and close to the faintest star in the tri. Seems elong in about PA 0, about 40" x 15", oval with smallish round slightly brighter core zone but to apparent nucleus.

-23 is seems the most round but small, probably about 30" diameter with a small slightly brighter core zone.

-25 is slightly elong in PA 150, maybe 30" x 20" with a slight broad brightening to centre with a hint of a very faint stellaring in the centre.

No worse than mod faint, maybe mod bright it lies between 2 *s of mag 13.5 and 14.5 aligned ENE-WSW and the eg is in PA 90 slightly skew to that line. Fairly elong, maybe 1.25' x 20" quite LSB outer halo, small round mod SB core brightening to a stellaring in the centre. There is a superimposed faint * mag 15 just to the SW of the core.
