For this galaxy, we shift down to the area of the crooked T around which the Messier galaxies M98, M99, and M100 are located. From the T, star-hop northwest to find a group of three stars arranged in a close pair with the third star off to the north. I found this galaxy to be not too difficult, with decent surface brightness. I could not discern any details or an orientation. |
