Let's assume you have a weekend with a dark sky.

Let's assume you have an Observing List and there are a LOT of great targets available.

Let's assume it's an outreach event and you have different types of telescopes.

 

How do you ensure the best observing experience for the event?

One way is to tailor the Observign Lists for each scope according to its strengths.
