Now I can plan a star hop if I want to try for it that way. Information in upper left corner is what I am looking for. So I zoomed in till I got the little red icon showing the exact location of the galaxy. Using the search function, the box came up on a blank area. Using Stellium on my Windows 10 desktop, version 0.19.3, NGC2485 is visible to me. NGC 2485 in CMa - is this visible for you (as an actual galaxy image)? Mind you, many of the DSOs are visible, it's just that as I explore more "advanced" ones I'm discovering many are not.Į.g. does Stellarium (desktop) load the images dynamically?
Yes, I use that panel and turned on all kinds of obscure catalogs today, but for many of them, all it does is show little red ovals to mark the location, showing black space (empty) where the DSO should be.Ĭould this be a bandwidth issue, i.e. Although, most of the visible ones seem to be brightish ones.Įdited by orionic, 21 March 2020 - 03:57 AM. So there is no clear logic for what is/isn't visible. However, ngc4206, with mag 12.15, is visible. Whereas ngc4302, with mag 11.61, is visible. For example ngc4733, which Stellarium says has mag 11.81, has no image.
Here, I see perhaps a few dozen galaxies visible, but several dozen more of the red ovals have no galaxy image. Perhaps Virgo is more interesting as an example. I quit the app, restart and still not visible if I search. At this point, ngc2485 (actually it's in CMa) still not visible. I also went to "Configure" -> "extras" tab and checked "show DSS button" to address what I suppose now that was suggesting then on the "main" tab, did "save settings". Also, just to be sure, on the "sky" tab I set "limiting magnitude" for "stars" to 16. So I checked "labels and markers" and then set "limit magnitude" to 16.0 just to be sure. Interestingly, that checkbox is only check/uncheckable if "labels and markers" is checked on the DSO tab. No, I didn't have "limit magnitude" checked in the DSO tab. Have you clicked the "limit magnitude" button? If so, unclick it and you will see more DSOs. If you click on them the details will be displayed in the upper left. Those little red circles will start to get labels, though not all. First - as you zoom in you will get more and dimmer stars and more and dimmer DSOs.
