2018 Relaunch of the Backyard Observing Program

Welcome to the 2018 Backyard Observing Program
Plan for January 2018 has been posted in topic "January 2018 Observing Plan". Post your observations in topic January 2018 - Post Observations Here.
Join me as I work through the new USA edition of the Observer's Handbook 2018.
I've always wanted to work The Sky Month by Month chapter and this is the year. Its focus is on the movements of the planets and their moons, transits and occultations...solar system stuff.
I'll post my backyard observing plans as a new topic and update them with my observations. When you do some backyard observing, post what you observed.
We can be virtual observing buddies!
Note: There are other topics in the Backyard Observing Program forum. You may prefer to join one of those so take a look.
