Arp 180 = MCG -01-13-034 lies 24' ENE. It appeared fairly faint, elongated 3:2 SW-NE, roughly 30"x20", small brighter core but no nucleus. The tidal arm to the south was not seen.

Isaac Roberts discovered IC 2102 on a photograph taken on 17 Feb 1903 with his 20-inch reflector of the NGC 1665 region. His position is off the southwest side of the galaxy, but the identification is certain.

600/800mm - 24" (12/12/17): at 200x; fairly faint, fairly small, round, low surface brightness, broad concentration, small slightly brighter core/nucleus. Member of the NGC 1700 group (LGG 123).
