If you can stay up late, the wonderful nebula group of Sagitarius will be rising above 40 degrees in the eastern sky by 1130pm. The Lagoon Nebula is big and bright, a good target for you. Right next to it to the north is the Trifud Nebula, then trailing them lower down to the northeast is the Sean and Eagle nebula. All of these are easy targets for your scope but i would start with the Lagoon. I will be out in the observatory tonight starting up a narrowband imaging run on the Lagoon. Be aware the moon rises about 1am but it is waning now. It you image from about 1130pm you have plenty of time on the Lagoon before moon rise. The moon is not a factor for narrowband on that target at this time. Good luck.
