Hi Bianca,

Have a look in the Observation & Visual Astronomy forum. Every month there is the Observation Challenge. It is designed help both beginners through to the experienced with suggested monthly targets. It isn't a competition. The idea is to help plan sessions if you are stuck for ideas, revisit old favs., expand your visual experience, and increase your knowledge of the stuff in the sky. It's range of targets can be from naked eye through to big scope stuff.

This following link takes you to a thread in the Beginners Talk forum which lists all the Challenges over the last year and has a short blurb describing them & with tips on how to best observe the targets:

Merry Christmas,

Mental.
