The Gemini telescope is having a competition for school kids to image an object for one hour and I have one who is very keen to submit. All the objects he has given me lie outside the imaging parameters which are below.
To be observable during the time frame of June-August, there are restrictions on the allowed position of the object. Like latitude and longitude on the Earth, objects in the sky have coordinates in Right Ascension and Declination (see this page for an explanation). The targets for this contest must meet the following requirements:
1. Right Ascension (RA) greater than 14 hours OR less than 1 hour.
2. Declination (Dec) between -90 degrees and +10 degrees.
I have suggested other objects but these too do not satisfy.
Any ideas of some startling objects or where I and he can go to look for objects that lie within.
