Visibility of Objects (Binary stars, Caldwell, Herschel, Messier, Nebulae)

[Anton Viola]

On request, I now created spreadsheets with which one can easily filter object databases to reveal which objects are visible. The criteria used are simple: date, time and location on one hand, and field of view limited for azimuth and altitude on the other hand.

The following spreadsheets are available:

- Best Deep sky (500 objects);

- Binary Stars (35 objects);

- Caldwell (109 objects);

- Herschel (400 objects);

- Messier (110 objects);

- Nebulae (100 objects).

Although for instance Stellarium offers similar functionality, it can be handy to have lists prepared for specific times during the night. 

You can download all spreadsheets from www.astronomy-morsels.ch/morsels.

Enjoy!

On request, I also added a spreadsheet showing the visibility of triple star systems. See attachment.

Open for more requests!
