Notes:
This galaxy produced SN 1994ai.
NGC 908 is a starburst galaxy, one that is undergoing a period of intense star
formation. Starburst is usually triggered by interaction with another galaxy.
Observations:
C8 at 83x. E-W axis, with the S edge being sharply cut off (as if by a dust lane?) and
overlayed by a dim star.
