I got a telescope for christmas that I took a break from for personal reasons but want to get back in it now that we are heading toward a less humid time of year.

Is there an app or blog that you use to keep track of these events? I feel like knowing when certain things are coming up will help me plan a little better.

I live in bortle 7 and I've learned from this spring that bortle 7 and 6 is not dark enough for certain targets with a 4 inch refractor lol. I have access to bortle 5 and 4 areas within an hour and 3 in just above an hour. I would just need to plan going out there in advance, if the weather cooperates.

Anyway, do you guys have any favorites? TIA!

Turn Left at Orion is a great book to have alongside your scope! I believe it is broken down into seasons and what is viewable at those times.
