What have I missed?

[Buqibu]

Hello all! Hope everyone is doing well, I've been absent from the website and astronomy in general for the past few months. I have not brought out the telescope since September, mostly due to school, the weather, the cold, laziness etc... Anyways, how are you finding this winter season, any cool things to observe? (Besides the famous Orion which I am of course familiar with). I would like to slowly get back into it, what's a nice place to start? Thanks in advance and Happy New Year!

Welcome back, Buqibu👍..and a Happy New Year to you too.

Where to begin??

Well, depends a bit on what scope you have, but Auriga has plenty of interesting objects, as do Gemini and Cassiopeia..

Let us know about your scope location ((Northern or Southern Hemisphere), and I'm sure you'll get helpful suggestions..

Thank you! I am in the northern hemisphere, have a little modest 4 inch achromat (though I love it). Is it too late to perhaps catch a glimpse of this new comet Leonard? Any other temporary event going on? Will definetly check out Auriga when I get the chance 🙂
