NGC 7522

Object in the constellation Aquarius with disputed identity From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

NGC 7522 is an astronomical object whose identity is in question. It was originally catalogued as a faint nebula. Although SIMBAD identifies it as PGC 70742,[2] this is unlikely, due to the faintness of the galaxy. Instead, it is possible that a nearby star was accidentally catalogued as a nebula.
