I just took advantage of a clearance sale on the 80mm Celestron Onyx refractor (and the Microsoft Live Search 25% cashback program through eBay 'buy it now'), and bought a bunch of accessories, and the last missing pieces arrived at my door this morning.
I've been meaning to set up my first 'observing plan' and this should help - I figure that I should be able to get both into my wide field of view at the same time... The only remaining questions are whether my southern horizon will cooperate and whether I can stand the wind-chill...
The planets should be even higher at your latitude. Go to the heavens-above.com website, register and then click 'whole sky chart'. That's how I got the sky maps I posted. Notice on the maps I posted, because of my ~40.5N latitude, the path the planets are on (the ecliptic) is especially far south at this time of the year for this time of the day (4:15PM ET). Also see their 'Planet Summary' and 'ISS' for a visible pass schedule for the International Space Station, which is currently hooked together with the Space Shuttle.
