Astronomy Weather Sky Chart for the Orange County area
This Astronomy Weather Sky Chart is for Mission Viejo in the Orange County area but you can follow the link on the Astronomy Weather Sky Chart to the Clear Outside website. The best time of the month to observe faint objects such as galaxies and star clusters is during a New Moon because there is no moonlight to interfere. (Good “seeing” occurs when the air is steady enough to allow you to see fine detail on planets through a telescope.)
