Interesting. These are 'far' enough away from the NGC 's to not get noticed before.

Re: 3 new dwarf companions(?) of NGC 253
IMHO:
Nothing bigger than our solar system is really a dwarf!!!
Globular clusters are really galaxy eggs.
Do II, Do III, and Do IV are really previously unnoticed baby galaxies circling around mama.

Many small scopes, plus a Lightbridge 12, LX 70-8R,6R,6M
Many eyepieces, just not really expensive ones.

I think there are a lot of these 'undiscovered' ones around. I looked on the DSS survey and could see them pretty easily. I tend to see a lot of these faint fuzzies on my deeper images that don't appear in any catalogs.
