OHMEOHMEOHMEPICKME!!! *waves hand wildly in the air* Last night I was out in absolutely Nowhere, NY (upstate) at midnight, on a hill, with a new or set moon, and nothing between me and the ecliptic except a few wisps of atmosphere. It was AWESOME.
I could barely figure out what anything was because there were too many stars. But Scorpio was right above the horizon (you're going to have to move some buildings, too), and the Great Teapot of Sagittarius up and to its left. Both Dippers and Cassiopeia were highly visible. No doubt there was a summer triangle up there somewhere, but I couldn't sort it out among the hundreds of stars.
