I made a positive observation of Jay McNeil's nebula with my 10-inch, f/4.5
Newtonian, tonight. I'll prepare a more thorough report to share with the list,
tomorrow. Before I sign off, I wonder if anybody has accurate Vmag photometry
for the following GSC stars:
GSC 4768-0185
GSC 4768 0125
GSC 4768 0681
GSC 4768 0706
GSC 4768 0720
Also, there's a Herbig-Haro object in the southeast corner of Tom Polakis'
finder chart for McN-1. It's the farthest from McN-1 of two nebulae to the SSW
(lower right) of Jay's nebula; has a bright core; two short curvy
extensions--almost looks like a galaxy. Is this HH 24-26 4?
Regards,
Bill in Flagstaff
