NGC 7293 in Aquarius

A small galaxy within the edge of the nebula (about 10 o'clock position)
is PGC 0837430, magnitude 17.
I noticed just below and left of centre was a small streak which turned out to be Asteroid 46563 Oken
shining at 16.8 magnitude.
Movement is shown for the 4 x 100 frame images taken over 17 minutes.
