A bright globular cluster of magnitude 6.4, 12.3 arc minutes in size. A
very rich, tightly packed globular with a very bright core. A stunning sight with large aperture
telescopes.
NGC 7331!!
22hr 37.1m
+34° 25'
At magnitude 9.5 this is the brightest galaxy in Pegasus. Visible
in a finder under good skies, this Sb spiral measures 10.7 by 4 arc minutes in size. With large scopes
look for several faint companion galaxies. (110NGC)
NGC 7217
22hr 07.9m
+31° 22'
Another bright galaxy, glowing at magnitude 10.2. An Sb spiral, 3.7
by 3.2 arc minutes in size. This galaxy has a very bright nucleus, a faint outer halo may be visible on
good nights.
A beautiful pair of edge-on galaxies in scopes 15cm and
larger. 7332 is the brighter of the two, their magnitudes are 10.9 and 12.1.
NGC 7479
23hr 05m
+12° 19'
A nice example of a face-on barred spiral galaxy, measuring 4.1 by
3.2 arc minutes and glowing at magnitude 11. Large scopes will show the two main spiral arms on
good nights.
NGC 7814
00hr 03m
+16° 09'
A bright edge-on spiral, near the bottom left corner of the Great
Square. Magnitude 10.5, 6.3 by 2.6 arc minutes in size. At high power, look for the dust lane splitting
the galaxy in two.
NGC 7772
23hr 51m
+20° 09'
A small open cluster of 7 stars, mag. 11 and fainter for a total
magnitude of 10. Only 1.6 arc minutes in size, near NGC 7814.
"Stephan's Quintet" - NGC's 7317, 7318A, 7318B, 7319 and 7320 - a
tight group of possibly interacting galaxies ranging in magnitude from 12.6 to 13.6, located 1/2°
SSW of NGC 7331. Three will be visible with an 8" scope on a good night.
PK104-29.1 (Jones 1)
23hr 36m
+30° 27'
"Jones 1" (Uranometria pg. 124) - a faint 15th mag.
planetary 5.5 arc minutes in diameter. OIII filter, large aperture and good skies are essential!
NGC 1,2,16 Group
00hr 07m
+27° 41'
Magnitudes 13.4,14.8 and 11.9, south of a Andromeda,
Uranometria Pg. 125. These galaxies are small and faint. Large aperture is needed for NGC's 1 and 2.
Look for NGC 22 nearby.
