MCG-1-24-1 (Gx)

../images/dss/dss2red_091049.46_-085326.51_8_web.jpg
Image source: DSS II (red) - 8'×8'
Name: MCG-1-24-1, UGCA150
Type: Gx
Constellation: Hya
Coordinates: 09h10m49.46s / -08°53'26.51"
Brightness / Size: 11m.3 / 5.3'×0.9'

120mm f/5, 108x, Bortle 4, SQM-L 21.0
Conditions in the target region: SQM-L 20.5
Towards horizon the sky was unfortunately a bit hazy. At 108x the halo around the 9.43 mag star seemed to be a bit irregular, but I didn't saw the galaxy for sure. I also tried it at 50x and 75x. But I'm pretty sure, that the galaxy could be seen with this aperture under better conditions.

FAILED
8" f/6, 80x, Bortle 4, SQM-L 21.0
Conditions in the target region: SQM-L 20.5
At 80x obviously oval / slightly elongated shape (NE-SW), getting somewhat brighter toward the middle. At 150x the galaxy appeared very elongated. At both magnifications quite easily seen with averted vision.

MODERATE

bei 111x ist die Superthin als zarter langer Schimmer sichtbar, der knapp am Stern vorbei zu zeigen scheint - zur Mitte hin wird die Galaxie heller - kurz vor dem nordöstlichen Ende leuchtet immer etwas stellar auf - bei 206x zeigt sich eine richtig schöne Spindel im Nordosten verzieren zwei Vordergrundsterne die Galaxie

voll im Lichtsiff - nene, nix zu machen - das probiere ich nochmal an einem besseren Standort

Conditions in the target region: SQM-L 20.6
Fairly faint, less condensed, roundish to slightly oval with declining edges.

NGC 2917 (Gx)

Image source: DSS II (red) - 5'×5'

8" f/6, 216x, Bortle 4, SQM-L 21.1
Conditions in the target region: SQM-L 20.3
Glimpsed at 150x as slightly oval brightening. At 216x I could held this galaxy with averted vision, but still very faint, slightly elongated.
