NGC 2035

Set a site to see tonight's sky

When NGC 2035 is up, how long it stays usable and when it is in season all depend on where you observe from. Set your site and this page adds tonight's answer and its year.

The science

What you are looking at

The facts

NGC 2035 is an object in Dorado. SIMBAD gives no distance for it, so its true size and light-travel time can't be worked out here. On the sky it spans 1.8′ — 6% of the full Moon's width. It shines at magnitude 11.0.
