I've had a liking for a while towards certain planets, stars, and nebulae. Mercury, for instance, along with Jupiter and Neptune. I once saw the Cygnus constellation when walking in the night, and it was so pretty🌌🌠✨

Pleiades is mine. Possible to see by the naked eye, enhanced with simple binoculars, the way its stars glow together is so beautiful.
Years ago, I took an intro astronomy course in my first year of university. I remember our professor told us that Alcor and Mizar, in Ursa Major, were a binary star system, that you could see them with the naked eye if you had good vision, and that the Spartans used that as an eye test for their army. Since then, whenever I can see the stars, I look for them.
I like Saturn, for what it's worth. Of course, that's likely because of the video game system I spent so much time with in the late 1990s. Still, how many planets come with their own hula hoop?
On clear nights I always find Cassiopeia and Orion almost immediately...I try to look for Lyra too but I'm still memorizing its location
