A Session lets you collect your observations into groups that span a few hours, or a few nights. For example, you might want to organize a single night's observations from your favorite dark sky site into a session. Sessions can be viewed and created in the Sessions view by tapping Observe on the Toolbar and selecting Sessions.

Creating A New Observing Session

To create a new session, tap the Create New Session button at the top of the Sessions view. Then fill out the information:

• Session Name - lets you add a title to your session.

• Site - tapping provides a choice of locations to choose from, including your current location.

• Start Time - tap to set the start time of your session. By default the time is set to when the session was created.

• End Time - tap to set the end time of your session.

• Comments - any particular notes about the site that you want to save. For example, "Astronomers and mosquitos don't mix at this site."
