Thus, advocates dismiss any "controversy" as being fabricated by older amateurs simply not able or willing to memorize the new designations despite every telescope database using the Caldwell IDs as the primary ...
NGC 7331, also known as Caldwell 30, is an unbarred spiral galaxy about 40 million light-years (12 Mpc) away in the constellation Pegasus. It was discovered by William Herschel on 6 September 1784. [4] The galaxy appears similar in size and structure to the Milky Way, and is sometimes referred to as "the Milky Way's twin". [5]

NGC 2362 is a relatively young 4–5 million years in age [3] but is devoid of star-forming gas and dust, indicating that the star formation process has come to a halt. [4] It is a massive open cluster, with more than 500 solar masses , [ 3 ] an estimated 100-150 member stars, and an additional 500 forming a halo around the cluster.
