250mm f5.6 Dobsonian | 9.7mmSP | | Football-shaped, with a field star at either 'point'. [Couldn't see NGC1313A] [Also on January 18 2007 from
Lostock: Large, bright and oval. Sits between 2 field stars lying N & S. Obviously brighter toward centre]. |
| NGC1543 | 04:12.8 | -57 44 | Galaxy | 10.6 | 3.9' x 2.1' | 51MLY | Feb 05 2005 | Cordeaux |
250mm f5.6 Dobsonian | 13.8mmSWA + 2X Barlow | | Probably face-on spiral. Bright centre and faint, round halo. |
| NGC1559 | 04:17.6 | -62 47 | Galaxy | 10.5 | 3.3' x 2.1' | 45MLY | January 20 1998 | Farmborough Heights |
250mm f5.6 Dobsonian | 26mmPlossl | | Quite large and bright. Oriented N-S. Prominent star in the same line of sight. |
| NGC1574 | 04:22.0 | -56 58 | Galaxy | 10.5 | 2.0' x 1.9' | 29MLY | Feb 05 2005 | Cordeaux |
250mm f5.6 Dobsonian | 9.7mm Super Plossl | | Hard to find at low power and needed high magnification to see it. Round with a bright centre.
Field star right next to it. [There is an equal brightness pair binary between alpha- and epsilon Doradus. This is the 'hopping' star to 1574]. |
