    I wish you luck in your endeavor. I'll be lucky to get a good look at Jupiter and a few of those listed.

    Thanks but it's not really an endeavor of mine.  These lists are part of an astronomical calendar that I compile each month for the newsletters of the three astronomy clubs to which I belong and are meant to serve as references for anyone interested in deep-sky observing.
