In my recent photo of NGC 1485, which was already a tiny object for my 127mm refractor, I noticed a faint galaxy nearby. I was curious if there was a way to look up details. I acquired the coordinates using software and used the + catalog at vizier.cfa.harvard.edu/viz-bin to search based on partial coordinates. The galaxy has 2 entries, one from survey showing a magnitude of 16.2 and one from survey showing 18.0 mag.
