Interesting object.
Agree with Brendan, mag 30 in TheSky means the TheSky database doesn't know the magnitude, and makes me question it's other information about such an object.
Do a query for "galaxies" brighter than mag 15 from TheSky, photograph each one, and it's amazing what objects will turn up. Globular Clusters are surprisingly common as well as open clusters, you'd think they would be properly cataloged at least.
