Some more star charts for tonight.

If you are new to Astronomy, it might be easier to locate globular cluster 47 Tucanae and move your bino's / scope until you pick up star Beta Octantis.

If you are observing using bino's from light polluted skies, ignore the tail. It will look like a smaller version of 47 Tuc.
