NGC6210 Observation Details

NGC6210

NGC6210 Daily Motion

NGC6210 will rise before twilight begins, at 19:37, and will reach 22° elevation by the time twilight commences at 21:42. It will reach its transit at 74° by 03:03 and gradually fade away as the night ends at 05:14, maintaining an elevation of around 58°.
NGC6210 will be visible until November, 16, 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.
