very faint, diffuse, small, weak concentration, requires averted vision. Forms the fainter member of a pair with NGC 2460 5.4' NE.

fairly faint, small, almost round, brighter center. Located 1.4' E of a mag 10 star. Forms a pair with NGC 2347 13' S.

at 88x appears bright, very small, just non-stellar, slightly bluish color. Takes 360x and appears slightly elongated E-W. No central star visible, fuzzy edges to the bright oval disc. Located 38' W of Σ903 = 6.1/10.8 at 23.

fairly faint, small, round. A faint star is near the south end.

using an H-beta filter IC 434 appears a very faint, very large, very elongated strip of nebulosity running south of Zeta Orionis for almost one degree in a N-S direction. There is a well-defined sharp edge along the east side while the west side fades off into the background. Contains the famous dark nebula B33 = Horsehead Nebula (see description) as a dark notch. IC 434 extends beyond NGC 2023 off the east edge and the star density drops off significantly east of IC 434 whereas a number of faint stars are pepper the field to the west of IC 434. This is one of the few emission nebulae which responds very well to a H-Beta filter. Extremely difficult without filter.

very faint glow surrounding mag 7.5 SAO 132446, diffuse appearance. Located 27' N of Zeta Orionis.

fairly faint, edge-on 4:1 SW-NE, bright elongated core. A mag 11 star is 4.5' N.

fairly faint, small, round, faint star close south.

fairly faint, moderately large, almost round, diffuse, even surface brightness. Unusual appearance as a two mag 13/14 stars are superimposed at the north and SE ends of the halo. Three bright stars form an equilateral triangle just south; mag 8.9 SAO 136172 4.2' SE, mag 8.5 SAO 136168 6.0' S and mag 9.1 SAO 136160 2.8' SSW.

fairly faint, small, slightly elongated, small bright core, slightly fainter and smaller than NGC 2633 8' N.

fairly faint, small bright core with faint extensions slightly elongated N-S. Forms a pair with NGC 2634 8.2' S.

faint, small, slightly elongated, weak concentration. This galaxy is part of a triple system with tidal tails as the result of a galactic merger.

faint, diffuse, slightly elongated, brighter star off NE side. Observation made through thin clouds.

moderately bright, fairly small, almost round, gradually increases to a small brighter core. A mag 14.5 star at the NNW edge 1.0' from center is similar to the substellar nucleus. Located 3.9' ESE of a mag 9.5 star at the west edge of the Cancer I galaxy cluster.

fairly faint, large, slightly elongated E-W, diffuse, weak concentration. Located 3.8' NNE of mag 8.9 SAO 153813 and 6.2' S of mag 8.7 SAO 153816 on the Monoceros border.

moderately bright, fairly small, bright core, diffuse halo, slightly elongated SW-NE. Forms a pair with IC 2209 5' SW.

three dozen faint stars mag 12-15 in a very elongated string oriented N-S with dimensions 5'x1.5'. This is a rich, pretty group with several pairs.

15 stars mag 13.5-15.0 over haze in a 4'x2' region elongated ~E-W. Four collinear mag 13 stars are on the east end. Lies SE of M47.

about 20 faint stars surrounding mag 8.2 SAO 153056 with some unresolved background haze. The cluster members are arranged in two curving lanes with a mag 8.2 star at the center, elongated ~E-W. Pretty view at high power.

spiral arm definite on the west side of the galaxy with a dark gap between this arm and the main body (core). This feature is very faint but definite with averted.

About 7 very faint mag 13.5-15 stars resolved over haze, unimpressive. Located in a very rich field 7' W of mag 7.2 SAO 152963.

fairly faint, very large, elongated 5:2 SW-NE, low almost even surface brightness. An unusually bright HII region is at the SW end of the galaxy (2' from the center) and appears as a fuzzy 12th magnitude star. Although very small, it appeared elongated SW-NE and similar to a poorly resolved double star. Definite contrast gain with OIII filter.

fairly faint, fairly small, bright core, slightly elongated N-S, diffuse. Located 4' S of mag 7.3 SAO 14129. A mag 10 star lies 5.2' NE. Forms a wide pair with IC 2179 = UGC 3750 13' N.

bright mag 11.5 central star surrounded by fairly small, round disc. Located between two mag 13 stars 0.8' E and 1.2' W. View enhanced with Daystar 300 filter. Central star is the variable V651 Mon (mag 11.3-13.5).

about 80 stars in a scattered cluster including several bright stars. Very large, bright. Includes a mag 8.5/8.9 double star at 33 separation in the center. Also includes many faint double stars.

At 79x appears stellar, very faint, estimate V = 14.0. Located 2.5' NE of a mag 11 star and 15' N of a mag 6.5 star. Impressive contrast gain with OIII and stellar up to 214x.

Marginal at 88x using OIII filter.

Very faint, stellar, estimate V = 14.5-15.0. Weak but noticeable contrast gain with UHC filter. Position verified on P-K finder chart. Not able to confirm at 88x with OIII or UHC filters. Surprising lack of contrast gain with filters due to low OIII emission. Located 12' S and 29' W of mag 4.9 132 Tauri.

At 144x appears moderately bright and very small but definitely non-stellar. Takes high power well and an obvious disk is seen at 214x. A mag 13 star is just off the south edge 11" from the center. The disc is quite prominent at 535x, slightly elongated NW-SE with a bluish tinge.

At 79x with UHC filter; moderately bright, very large, thick partial annulus, incomplete on NW side, brightest on west and SW edge. Without a filter this huge planetary appears faint and diffuse at 79x.
