RE: (IAAC) NGC2313 a Dark Nebula??



Kim,

 

Checking the Digitized Sky Survey for both positions reveals the same object as in the picture you gave the URL to in your first message for Steinicke’s position, and mysteriously nothing definite for Corwin’s position, though there might be a background dark nebula, my laptop’s screen not showing it really much, maybe it’s better on a “real” screen…

 

Still the same laptop does show some (faint but definite) dark nebula at and around Steinicke’s position. Steinicke quotes LDN 1653, which is a large object… Use a large field of view to see it. I used 30 arcmins:

Ciel clair / Clear skies,

Both seem to have 2313 listed as a Dark Nebula
