The
Nightly Observing List Generator
Behind
this simple tool lies an amazing engine for suggesting objects
to observe on any given night. Quickly create a list of
cool things to show your buddies or escape the doldrums with
interesting objects that you have never heard of
before. Objects are chosen appropriate for the
night, observing location, telescope, and when you plan to go to
bed.
Imagine
this... you arrive home late from work one evening and
suddenly remember that you are meeting the scouts tonight with
your telescope. What are you going to show them?
This wonderful tool can bail you out in seconds, generating a
list of showpieces, including planets, double stars, bright deep
sky objects, and even comets.
Tired
of the same old objects? This tool can suggest
something new and interesting to observe on any given
night. And with a random component, a different set of
objects can be suggested each time you run it.
