Best Deep-Sky Objects for Beginners (Northern Hemisphere)

This infographic is for those who have already observed the most famous constellations and brightest planets and are ready to move on. We'll introduce you to beginner-friendly deep-sky targets — galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. No need for fancy equipment: all objects in our list can be observed with binoculars, and some are even visible to the naked eye.

You will also learn how to find each deep-sky object in the sky using bright stars and well-known asterisms. If star-hopping seems too difficult, there’s an easier way: use the astronomy app Sky Tonight. Simply type the object's name in the search field, and the app will show its location.
