Are there any documents online that can give me a list of things in the sky to go on a tour of? Only have a 70mm refractor so they can't be over a magnitude of say... 9.5-10.
"Tonight's Sky" will filter by magnitude.

Where it says "Minimum magnitude" in the query selection it means only show objects brighter than that.

One gotcha. Don't try to specify transit times on both sides of midnight. It defaults to sunset/twilight to midnight. If you want times on both sides of midnight, do two runs - one for before and one for after.
