The New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars, which is abbreviated as NGC was originally compiled by John Dreyer in 1888. It was later extended by the Index Catalogue. Ov
NGC Catalogue
The data used on these pages are obtained from a publicattion of the Sky Publishing Corporation [1] which allowed the usage of these data for non commercial purposes.
NGC 2000.0 is a modern compilation of the New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars (NGC), the Index Catalogue (IC), and the Second Index Catalogue compiled by J. L. E. Dreyer (1888, 1895, 1908). The new compilation of these classical catalogs is intended to meet the needs of present-day observers by reporting positions at equinox B2000.0 and by incorporating the corrections reported by Dreyer himself and by a host of other astronomers who have worked with the data and compiled lists of errata. The object types given are those known to modern astronomy.
In order to avoid the download of large lists, the catalogue is divided into several parts:
- List of NGC objects (1-999)
- List of NGC objects (1000-1999)
- List of NGC objects (2000-2999)
- List of NGC objects (3000-3999)
- List of NGC objects (4000-4999)
- List of NGC objects (5000-5999)
- List of NGC objects (6000-6999)
- List of NGC objects (7000-7480)
