List of stars in the New General Catalogue

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

NGC 3, a double star and asterism in the constellation Pegasus

Some objects originally thought to be deep sky objects and listed in the New General Catalogue have been subsequently shown to be ordinary stars, so their inclusion in the catalog is now considered erroneous.[1] This list of stars is based on the "NGC 2000.0" version of the catalog, which lists the stars in its errata,[1] supplemented with data on each individual star from the VizieR database.
