Recorded (Sep 14, 1900) by Arnold Schwassmann (221)
A lost or nonexistent object in Hydra (RA 12 08 00.1, Dec +12 38 47)
IC 3010
Discovered (Apr 11, 1898) by Lewis Swift (XI-134)
IC 3011 (= NGC 4119 = NGC 4124 = PGC 38527)
Discovered (Jan 18, 1784) by William Herschel (and later listed as NGC 4119)
Rediscovered (Mar 15, 1784) by William Herschel (and later listed as NGC 4124)
Rediscovered (Feb 23, 1900) by Arnold Schwassmann (124) (and later listed as IC 3011)
An 11th-magnitude spiral galaxy (type SA(r)0) in Virgo (RA 12 08 09.5, Dec +10 22 44)
Herschel's early observations were not as accurate as his later ones, and a poor position for his initial observation of this galaxy led to its being assigned two NGC numbers and (much later on) an IC number, as well. |
IC 3012 (= PGC 38546)
Discovered (May 7, 1904) by Royal Frost (798)
A 14th-magnitude spiral galaxy (type S?) in Virgo (RA 12 08 23.9, Dec +11 10 37)
Based on recessional velocity of 9715 km/sec, about 430 million light years away. Given that and apparent size of 0.8 by 0.4 arcmin, about 100 thousand light years in diameter. |
