I hope you have enjoyed this astronomy course.
If you have studied the course well, you should now be able to identify
the most important parts of the night sky and understand enough
astronomy to be able to consider it a serious hobby. I hope these
lessons have expanded your understanding of the universe.
Now that you have completed the course you may be ready for your telescope. A good one costs about the same as a computer and a bad one is not worth owning at all. (So, kids, don't pester your parents. Telescopes are expensive! They are NOT toys!) Having said all that, if you are keen to buy a telescope read (again) the section on optical devices. Next, join an local astronomy club. The folks in the club will give you plenty of advice about local dealers and gadgets and that will help you choose the scope you really can use. |
The Galaxy Song
Whenever life gets you down, Mrs Brown
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars!
The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
