    I've seen NGC 1 a couple of times; it's faint but doable if you have an 8- to 10- inch telescope. "*11 and *14" refers to the magnitudes of the stars (NGC 1 described as lying between a mag.11 star and a mag,14 star).

    Another good reason to collect them, is eventually we'll need all that data along with all the proper motions of the stars, to build a *_Dynamic Digital Navigational Map_* of this galaxy so that eventually, when we make that step; we can navigate it. A static star map of the galaxy is no good when the stars are moving. :)

    Catalogues and cataloguing are necessary are they help people in finding things and seeing patterns and making connections. Imagine if there were no catalogues, each generation would have to start from scratch. Dwyer have not been the brightest star in his field I am sure he made useful contributions, e.g. the NGC and IC. And, lastly as an amateur astronomer, I have seen both NGC 1 and NGC 2, I seem to remember 2 was much fainter visually.

    Its (a tiny bit) frustrating to me that the Milky Way isn't numbered in NGC, or PGC etc. Its feels similar to counting all the planets in the solar system and excluding earth. I understand that they're observation based and you can't externally observe the galaxy. its just feels either too humble or too smug.
