Description
Astronomy is a great hobby. Pay attention to the wonders of the universe, which we can often experience in the night sky by observing with the naked eye, a telescope, or through the viewfinder or display of a camera. Many celestial objects and phenomena can be observed with the naked eye; you just need to focus on it. For other observations, we need optical aids. In this book, we will provide you with information about which objects you can observe in the sky. We will introduce you to the Sun, the Moon, and all the planets, and tell you what we know about them and what we can see with the help of amateur tools on these objects. While observing stars and star systems, we will also delve into deep space. Even smaller telescopes can grant us access to a multitude of distant objects. We will discuss which optical instrument is particularly suitable for a specific observational purpose and how it works. Along the way, we will help you master the intricacies associated with its operation and teach you how to set it up precisely for the purpose of observing your desired celestial objects. Your new hobby called astronomy will likely bring you even more joy when you meet other enthusiasts of stargazing to exchange experiences and support each other.
