- The Moon - look at craters along the terminator where the sunlight
ends. On the moon thats where the light is horizontal so the shadows
of the craters are biggest.
- Jupiter - can you see its moons ?
- Saturn - can you see its rings and moons ?
- The Pleiades. Easily seen with the naked eye, and is even better with
binoculars.
- h and chi Persei: A pair of open clusters visible to the naked eye
(though not as easily as the Pleiades).
- The Andromeda galaxy. Can JUST be seen with the naked eye if you are
in a very dark site away from street lamps. This is the furthest thing
an unaided eye can see - the light from it has taken 2 million
years to reach you. Its easily visible in binoculars.
- Orion nebula. A cloud of gas and dust which is forming stars. The
remaining gas and dust glow as they are lit up by the light of the
young stars within it.
- Milky way: resolve it into lots of faint stars.
- Albireo: a fairly bright star in Cygnus. You should be able to resolve
this with the binoculars, and see that the two stars are different
colours, i.e. they are different tempertures.
