Asteroid 626 Notburga Observation Details
Notburga Daily Motion
Notburga will rise before twilight begins, at 18:15, and will reach 9° elevation by the time twilight commences at 19:10. It will reach its transit at 80° by 01:48 and gradually fade away as the night ends at 03:06, maintaining an elevation of around 71°.626 Notburga will be visible until May, 5, when it will move too close to the Sun. During this time, its proximity to the Sun will cause it to disappear from the night sky, making it unobservable for a while.
