NGC4149 Observation Details
NGC4149 Daily Motion
NGC4149 is circumpolar, never setting below the horizon and always visible in the night sky from your location. However, it will change its position significantly, moving 63 degrees over time. You can find the best times to observe NGC4149, when it reaches its highest elevation, in the annual motion section.NGC4149 will be visible until September, 12, 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.
