NGC 2403 is a fine spiral galaxy ten million light years away. It's too faint for binoculars but is easily seen in medium sized telescopes.
The galaxy is in the same field as 42 and 43 Cam. To find these stars, start at alpha Cam and sweep clockwise around the Pole Star, keeping the same distance.
You'll come across a small group of stars: binoculars. Having verified that you're in the right location, now put 42 and 43 at the northwest corner of your field of vision. NGC 2403 is at the opposite side: binoculars .
