Hunting the Lion: Observing and Imaging Targets in Leo
For many, the constellation of Leo is considered a centerpiece of the spring sky. In actuality, Leo signifies that late winter has arrived and heralds the coming of the spring constellations. By the first of February, by 10:00 pm Leo has risen and by 11:00 pm it is really high enough to begin making observations.
Leo boasts everything from bright, showy double stars to some of the most distant galactic clusters accessible to amateur equipment. This observing list has something for everyone. If you only have a 4 inch to 8 inch telescope, the Beginners List is perfect for you. You may also try for some of the objects on the Intermediate list. If you have a telescope of 10 inches of aperture or more, or are imaging, then the entire list is possible.
For a copy of the list in PDF or as a Google Doc head over to EadsyAstronomy LINK for the links and attachements.
