NGC6584 Observation Details

NGC6584 Daily Motion
NGC6584 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.NGC6584 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.
