Welcome to The Night Sky series!
Here you will find my curated lists of deep sky targets (DSO), planets, meteor showers, events and more. All wrapped up neatly in a month-by-month report for your convenience. Here, I will break down a variety of targets within the Northern Hemisphere for that month.
What you can expect is targets chosen for specific focal lengths ranging from 200mm all the way up to 2000mm. They’re all based on a full-frame DSLR camera sensor. However, I also include equivalents for popular cameras out there as well. This means that no matter what your camera, what your telescope, you will almost certainly find a suggestion for your skies.
Any planets I include also are chosen only if they raise above 20° altitude for about 2 hours at least. This means the planet clears the worst of the atmosphere, giving you a better chance to get good seeing on it for a better image!
I hope you find something useful for you, and you can always contact me for further suggestions or give your feedback or thoughts.
