Amazing Astronomy is in the process of providing a comprehensive and convenient list of New General Catalogue (NGC) objects and will soon update the relevant pages linked above. In groupings of 100, these posts can provide a helpful reference for stargazing and your astronomic knowledge. Galaxies only have the constellation listed, while other features (mostly nebulae and star clusters) have an italicized description after a dash. NGC numbers without info — such as NGC 6, 19, and 56 — are not currently assigned to cosmic objects or may be a duplicate object of another NGC number.
You might notice that particular constellations are studded with cosmic wonders — for example, Dorado with its hundreds of galaxies — while other constellations (Caelum) prefer to give you relatively few yet especially brilliant gems. The universe is yours to explore and enjoy!
