I know very little about astronomy, so my search for Polaris wasn't very good. When I get to a super dark spot, I do want to get a image of the Milkyway.
Well, right now you have a great example. It's like riding a bicycle, it comes back to you. A GPS or compass on your cell phone helps find Polaris, too.
Have a blast learning! You're doing great so far.
And yeah, the Milky Way, be prepared to stare in awe. The skies in a dark zone are fantastic!
I never thought too much about the time a card took. I bumped it a few times shooting the grand kids soccer games. But trying to narrow that gap between my star trails shots really drove the point home.
A faster and bigger card took care of that for me.
Some great FREE apps for a phone are:
Apples Sky View
Android Sky Map
I use Stellarium a lot. I have it in 3 computers, and my android phone.
