Double Star 12084-5043 Observation Details
12084-5043 Daily Motion
12084-5043 is said to be "never-rising." It is always below the horizon and remain out of view, regardless of the time of year or night.12084-5043 will be visible until January, 1, 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.
