Class: SABc
Constellation: Vir
Data: mag 10.0 size 6.9 x 5.4
Position: RA 12:34 DEC 09:12
Description:
In Virgo, at ~ 1¼° E of M49. In the first minutes of observation, I thought of having collected some photons of this object; with the supposed site of NGC 4535 was a stellar object in appearance, perhaps the core of this spiral. Thereafter, I checked with Herald-Bobroff Astro-Atlas to realize that it is rather a star of low brightness which I observed, and not NGC 4535. M49 in the same FOV.
