It looks like being at least mostly clear tonight so I set up the Thirty Millimetre Telescope outside, but then really struggled to find targets for it. It's basically Full Moon so I definitely want to use the internal dual narrowband light pollution filter all night, which means only going after emission nebulae, i.e. HII regions and planetary nebulae. Unfortunately at this time of year most of them are too low apart from right at the start or end of the night.
I was going to spend most of the night just racking up more time on the Helix Nebula since it is observable pretty much all night, but then I realised that the Moon would be right next to it so the data would be garbage even with the light pollution filter. Searching in https://telescopius.com (thanks to @malcircuit for that tip about that) suggests that the only emission nebulae that will be observable and not too close to the Moon during most of the night are the ones in/near the Magellanic Clouds, so that's what I'm going to do, at least until the Seagull Nebula rises high enough.
