What is the direct object in the sentence All astronomers observed the heavens constantly?

"The heavens". A tip to remember what the object of a sentence is, what ever comes after the verb. English sticks to a rule usually where it is SVO (subject + verb + object). It can also be called the accusative case. "Astronomers" would be the subject, "observed" would be the verb in the past perfective tense, and "heavens" would be the object. "Constantly" is an adverb.
