Overview: Helps enthusiastic but inexperienced amateur astronomers get the best from their existing equipment.Answers the fundamental questions: "what should I buy and how should I use it?" and "how do I get th.Amateur astronomers have to start somewhere. Most begin by buying a modest astronomical telescope and getting to know the night sky. After a while, many want to move on to the next stage, but this can be problematic. The magazines advertise a mass of commercially-made equipment – some of it very expensive – which can represent a major financial outlay. The trick is to choose the right e
