Full Text of Proposal

Comments by OPC

General Comments: The idea is good but unfortunately the location of the galaxies is a little too late for november. Also, this is bright-moon time and B,V images would be degraded by the moon scattered light if expo time is too long (10min): best will be to split the observations. Except for NGC 5457 that is too late, all galaxies are bright enough.

Visibility:Visible at the end of the night.

Special Comments:

Expected time consumption (including overhead):About 2 hours.

Proposed facility:Brorfelde.
