What should I view through my binoculars/scope tonight?
I live in a fairly light polluted neighborhood in Tulsa, OK. On a clear night (like tonight) I can see Andromeda as a faint smudge. I know I've seen some open clusters but I'm new to Astronomy and haven't documented findings yet (I plan to start tonight, hopefully) I do the best I can to avoid white light and let my eyes get adjusted. So, if somehting such as Andromeda is a faint smudge through my 15x70 Celestron bino's what would be a good globular I might be able to see. Right now Cassiopeia , Perseus Pegasus Triangulum and Lacerta are all constellations that are at a descent place to view from my house. Any good globulars or something other than an open cluster you can recommend trying to find. (I've already enjoyed the wonderful comet as well as Orion's nebula.) Thanks
Perhaps unfortunately, this is pretty much open cluster season. For globulars, look early in the evening for M15, between Enif (the nose of Pegasus) and Delphinus, south of that, M2 in Aquarius, and further south, M30 in Capricornus.
Also in Aquarius is Uranus. Easy to see in binoculars, not so easy to recognize - http://www.skyandtelescope.com/skytel/beyondthepage/9124251.html .
Cassiopeia and Auriga are both rich in open clusters. NGC457, the "ET Cluster" in Cass - http://www.astrosurf.com/jwisn/ngc457.htm - is a good one. M35, at the foot of Gemini, M36, M37, and M38 in Auriga, and M34 in Perseus should all be within reach.
