Contemporary Visual Observation(s) for NGC 7090 | |||
NGC 7090 = ESO 188-012 = AM 2133-544 21 36 28.9 -54 33 26 V = 10.7; Size 7.4x1.3; SB = 13.0; PA = 127d 11" (8/8/04 - Haleakala Crater): moderately bright, fairly large, edge-on 5:1 NW-SE, 4.0'x0.8', broad concentration but there is no distinct core. Irregular surface brightness with a mottled appearance at 127x. Appears to fade suddenly in a couple of spots (possibly due to dust) including just SE of a mag 13.5-14 star which is superimposed on the SE side. Viewed at an elevation of 13?. | |||
