Discovered (1784) by William Herschel
"Discovered" (1900) by Arnold Schwassmann
Apparently not checked against NGC before entering in IC

IC 3052 (= PGC 39031)
Discovered (1904) by Royal Frost
A 15th-magnitude dwarf elliptical galaxy (type dE2) in Virgo (RA 12 13 48, Dec +12 41 26)
The recessional velocity of only 910 km/sec is too low to yield a reliable distance estimate, because peculiar (non-Hubble expansion) velocities could be a substantial fraction of the value. However, in the absence of redshift-independent distance estimates, it can at least be hoped that the Hubble expansion estimate of 40 million light years is of some value. Presuming it is, the apparent size of 0.45 by 0.3 arcmin indicates a diameter of only 5 thousand light years, hence the designation as a dwarf galaxy. |
Above, a closeup of IC 3052 Below, an approximately 15 arcmin wide region centered on the galaxy (The contrast is enhanced in the wide-field view, because of the low surface brightness of the galaxy) |
