Subra - ο Leonis (omicron Leonis)
Subra, also designated as ο Leonis (omicron Leonis), is a multiple bright giant star in the constellation of Leo.
Subra visual magnitude is 3.52. Because of its moderate brightness, Subra should be easily visible from locations with dark skyes, while it can be barely visible, or not visible at all, from skyes affected by light pollution.
The table below summarizes the key facts about Subra:
Celestial coordinates and finder chart of Subra
Subra is situated close to the celestial equator, as such, it is at least partly visible from both hemispheres in certain times of the year. Celestial coordinates for the J2000 equinox as well as galactic coordinates of Subra are provided in the following table:
