ASTRO: NGC 157
This is another Herschel 400 object, a galaxy this time. It's also one I
never revisited since observing it for the list in the early 80's. Seeing was poor and while it has several HII regions I should have been able to pick up, seeing seems to have obliterated them. Halpha probably would help as well. This will have to do for now. I couldn't find a good distance estimate for this one but since it is a lone galaxy, not part of a group the red shift distance of 60 million light years may be somewhat in the ball park. 14" LX200R @ F/10, L=4x10' binned 2x2, RGB=2x10' binned 3x3, STL-11000XM, Paramount ME Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |
