A small constellation of the southern sky, whose distorted line of stars lies south of the Big Dog and Hare. Dove can be seen all above the horizon from areas as far south as the southernmost European shores. If we want the best view of its objects, we must wait for a time when it is passing through the meridian and the southern horizon is not obscured by fog, dust, or low cloud. The Dove contains a handful of binaries, a couple of moderately bright galaxies, and the pretty globular cluster NGC 1851.
