Deep Sky Object Lists
|
I have extracted the following Deep Sky Object lists from either the source of the list
or other reliable sources and converted them to Microsoft Excel 97
and Adobe PDF format.
The Excel lists allow easy sorting by RA, Dec, magnitude, constellation, etc. If you do not
have Excel, but want to view the lists, you can download a free Excel Viewer from Microsoft's
web site. It moves around, but try Download Center at office.microsoft.com.
For the PDF files you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader, available free
at www.adobe.com. |
