NGC 1106
Discovered (Sep 18, 1828) by John Herschel
NGC 1107
Discovered (Sep 2, 1864) by Albert Marth (74)
NGC 1108
Discovered (Oct 31, 1886) by Lewis Swift (5-45)
NGC 1109 (? = IC 1846) (see note below)
Possibly discovered (Dec 2, 1863) by Albert Marth (75) (and later listed as NGC 1109)
Discovered (Jan 7, 1896) by Stephane Javelle (and later listed as IC 1846)
Note of Warning for NGC 1109, 1111, 1112, 1113 and 1117Albert Marth observed eight galaxies, subsequently listed as NGC 1109, 1111, 1112, 1113, 1115, 1116, 1117 and 1127, on a single night in 1863. Of those, only three have recorded positions which correspond to actual objects -- NGC 1115, 1116 and 1127 -- and have been entered as such, below. The other five objects presumably correspond to one galaxy or another in the stellar field encompassed by Marth's observations; but which NGC objects correspond to which galaxies has been a mystery for more than a century. One result is that several of the galaxies were "discovered" by other observers at a later date, giving them different NGC, IC and/or PGC numbers from whatever numbers Marth's objects ought to have. The other is that even now, none of the references I've used agree with any of the others as to which identifications are correct; so until I have a chance to make sense of this mess, I will not be posting data for the "uncertain" objects, or will be doing so with a suggestion to refer to this warning. |
