Description:
Invisible at very low powers (*23); if I got her was just because I had made a
sketch of the field that surrounds this galaxy as a guide. At *46, she becomes
faintly visible as a "torpedo" with no gradient and well-defined edges; I
estimate a size of roughly 10 minutes. No details visible.
At *79 only visible with averted vision, and also featureless.
