NGC7163 | 21:59.3 | -31 53 | Galaxy | 13.3 | 1.9' x 1.1' | 127MLY | September 15 2001 |
Kangaloon | 250mm f5.6 Dobsonian | | | Can be seen in the same low power field north of the Hickson 90 group. (See NGC7172/73/74/76).
Very bright and large. Oval E-W. |
NGC7172 | 22:02.0 | -31 52 | Galaxy | 11.9 | 2.2.3' x 1.3' | 117MLY | September 15 2001 |
Kangaloon | 250mm f5.6 Dobsonian | 9.7mmSP+2XBarlow | | A member of the Hickson 90 group. NGC7172 separates easily from a knot with
NGC7173/NGC7174/NGC7176. I think maybe I can see two nucleii in this knot. |
