Description

Size: 9.2'
Magnitude: 8.7
Surface Brightness: 13.0

Notes:
Actual size including the beautiful wisps surrounding the galaxy is somewhere around 20', and conversely the surface brightness of the galaxy is much lower than the stated figure.  Definitely one best captured under dark skies, and would likely make a good target for even a shortish focal length setup in such conditions.
