... This applet generates an observing list based on an observer's location and time. ... To use this program, enter in your location, and the local times at which you wish to begin and end observing. The date you enter should correspond to the calendar day at the time at which you begin observing. For example, if you wish to observe from 9:37 PM October 23, 2007 until 3:21 AM October 24, 2007, you would enter 21:37 for the starting time, 03:21 for the finish time, and 10/23/2007 for the date. ...

Next: Using the planning Up: Planning your observing Previous: Introduction . The planning program will ask you for a lot of information, so be ready with the answers to its questions. Obviously, it needs to know the location and size of the telescope you will use, and the stars you want to observe; so you must tell it the names of the files in which this information is stored. ... You may need to look up or find out some of the information ahead of time. ...
