An informational catalog, or several catalogs, about New General Catalogue.

The data used on these pages are obtained from a publication of the Sky Publishing Corporation [1] which allowed the usage of these data for non commercial purposes.

NGC 2000.0 is a modern compilation of the New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars (NGC), the Index Catalogue (IC), and the Second Index Catalogue compiled by J. L. E. Dreyer (1888, 1895, 1908). The new compilation of these classical catalogs is intended to meet the needs of present-day observers by reporting positions at equinox B2000.0 and by incorporating the corrections reported by Dreyer himself and by a host of other astronomers who have worked with the data and compiled lists of errata. The object types given are those known to modern astronomy.

In order to avoid the download of large lists, the catalogue is divided into several parts:

NGC objects 1-999 NGC objects 1000-1999 NGC objects 2000-2999 NGC objects 3000-3999 NGC objects 4000-4999 NGC objects 5000-5999 NGC objects 6000-6999 NGC objects 7000-7480
