This has to do with the rotation/inclination of the earth and the seasons, the time the sun sets and what is visible in the celestial sphere. For us in the northern hemisphere (I’m in Greece) it means that during spring it’s a lot easier to see most, if not all, Messier objects in a single night. | ||||||||
