Default ASTRO: UGC 9242

This image of UGC 9242 in Bootes is from the same two nights in May as NGC
4204. This galaxy qualifies for the "superthin" category.

Taken with a 10" Meade ACF at f/5.7 on a G11 mount, SXV-H9 camera, 37x5
minutes.

The picture can also be found at

That's an interesting one and new to me. Nice find! No hint of a
central bulge. Since they now think the bulge size is related to the
size of the black hole in the center it makes you wonder if this galaxy
even has a black hole.
