For me the part I could see and only a small percent of the time as it would pop in and out is the purple color in figure 12 of the paper. There was no structure just a smuts that would come and go.

I hope to try for the central star in the near future. I will report back my results.

Uwe great suggestion NGC 2146 is one of my favorite galaxies. I like the nickname “Dusty Hand Galaxy”
I had forgotten that you and I discussed NGC 4753 with Steve Odewahn and he called it the evil galaxy. I remember him saying it was a most unusual type of galaxy and was of much interest to his...

Fantastic drawing and observation. The transparency must have been amazing.
Mel what power were you using for this drawing?
Welcome to Deep Sky Forum Peter. I look forward to your post.
Akarsh would this be classified as a Jellyfish Galaxy? I thought Jellyfish galaxies were only in galaxy clusters? It sure looks like a Jellyfish.
Here is a size comparison of IC 1101 to the Milky Way.

ESO 565-11 is a rare and unique type of bared spiral. It has at least 10 H II knots that form a ring around the nucleus of the galaxy. This is...
I want to think I have heard reports of people seeing IC 1101 with a 10” under dark skies.
Yes I have seen it. It is in the Arp Madore Southern Peculiar galaxy catalog. I think if I remember right that it is thought to be a polar ring type galaxy.
