Description:
Faint galaxy near M 13 in Hercules, barely visible, only with averted
vision.  At lower power than 110X, the galaxy is not visible, becouse
it is so small (I think), and at 110 X I can see that it is an
eliptical galaxy. No other details recorded (like color). It is close
to the limit of visibility in a 3.5" ( 9cm).
