Deep Sky Object Search
      #17804 - 11/03/03 02:42 AM

Is there an astronomy program that will allow me to search for deep sky objects located within a coordinate range? For example: I would like to perform a search for all deep sky objects located within a given range and then print out the results. An example search such as: All objects located between 5h and 6h RA, and 0 degrees and 10 degrees Dec. I'm a relative newbie, hope this makes sense.

Since your using celestial coordinates, I assume your searching for objects in the NGC. Here Are a Few I found:

And this is a whole list of search results:
