| NGC2911 |  |
Arp 232 / NGC 2911 | 2025-01-26 22:18:00 | A lenticular galaxy with concentric rings? Or "appearance of fission?" Who knows? | |
| NGC2914 |  |
Arp 137 / NGC 2914 | Arp 137, NGC 2914 | 2025-01-26 22:19:00 | A tiny, enigmatic galaxy in the same FOV as Arp 232. Did Dr. Arp make a mistake? |

| NGC2998 |  |
NGC 2998: a Vera Rubin Galaxy | NGC 2715 | 2026-01-22 22:34:00 | Seventh captured of 21 galaxies in Vera Rubin's famous research paper from 1980 analyzing galaxy rotation postulating Dark Matter |

Arp 337 / Cigar Galaxy / M82 | Arp 337, M 82, NGC 3034 | 2024-02-19 20:23:00 | Fab target. Bright and fascinating; often visible if you live towards the north. |
| NGC3104 |  |
Arp 264 / NGC 3104 | Arp 264, NGC 3104 | 2026-03-09 21:21:00 | CMOS mono cameras are amazing, allowing my little 8" to go deeper than Arp's 200" with film. |

NGC 3115 / Spindle Galaxy / C53 | NGC 3115, C53 | 2025-04-27 21:30:00 | A convincing looking spindle, but don't confuse it with M102 of the same nickname. |

C74 / NGC 3132 | C74, NGC 3132 | 2025-12-16 05:16:00 | A tiny planetary nebula that the Seestar handled reasonably well |
| NGC3187 |  |
Arp 316 / NGC 3187 / NGC 3189 / NGC 3193 | Arp 316, NGC 3187, NGC 3189, NGC 3193 | 2026-03-04 21:30:00 | A wide-field view of a cluster taken by Arp using the 48" Schmidt... roughly the same as my 8" |
