R/B-band color composite image from the Second Digitized Sky Survey (DSS2), measuring 30 arcminutes across.
From Cambridge , φ-Cas is visible in both the dusk and dawn skies. In the evening, it will become visible at around 20:20 (EDT), 27° above your north-western horizon, as dusk fades to darkness. It will then sink towards the horizon, becoming tricky to observe after 21:40 when it dips 19° above your north-western horizon. At 04:49, it will return to an altitude of 19° above your north-eastern horizon, and reach an altitude of 21° before fading from view as dawn breaks at around 05:13.
