[sac-forum] Re: SAC H400 List

AJ,
I have a copy of the "Observe the Herschel Objects" by the Ancient City 
Astronomy Club (brown cover with a sketch of Herschel's 20 ftr) with a 
copyright date of 2005.  This lists 1750 but not 7814.
Were you looking for a first or second printing (1980, 1992 respectively)?

Here's an update with additional information.  The differences revolve around 
two objects.  NGC1750, an open cluster in Taurus that is on the SAC list, and 
NGC7814, a galaxy in Pegasus that is not on the SAC list.

In all SAC versions, including the URL below NGC1750 is there but NGC7814 
isn't.  On lists that are on my hard drive, and dated 1991, the same holds - 
1750 is there 7814 isn't.

Anyone have a copy of the early, very early, book on the Herschel 400?  I'm 
speaking of the one with brown cover containing a drawing or picture of 
Herschel's telescope.  What is status of these two obects and the published 
date of the book.  I've just about turned my astronomy stuff downside up 
looking for my copy and just can't seem to find it.

Any help out there?

Thanks and clear skies,
aj

  Anyone have an idea when the Herschel 400 list was posted at the URL 
   http://www.saguaroastro.org/content/Herschel-400-objects.htm

  There seems to be some difference amongst some of the lists on the internet 
and I'm trying to see if there is some sort of resolution.  The database 
version is 7.2, but is there a big lag in time before the data was posted.  In 
fact I wasn't aware of the change until today.  Prior to that, I believe, was 
just a catalog type of listing and came from a list dated something like 1991.

  Thanks and clear skies,
  aj
