    This video is the first in the series of combined videos of Module 1 of my complete undergraduate course in introductory Astronomy. All the topics that you would learn in such a course are in this one video. This series tracks standard introductory textbook material that you would find at any university.

    I was a little kid getting dragged out of bed to see a famous comet. Hopefully I live long enough to see its return.

    Great observational clips of Lunar Eclipses Professor !
    It's encouraging me to get out there.
    Especially after some modifications to my small Newtonian.
    Threw a true Parabolic Mirror in 114 mm, added a Dual Speed GSO Focuser that can accept 2 in. eyepieces, added small tracking motor, revamped Finderscope, Celestrons 114 EQ Astromaster improved !
    I would like to inquire if you has yet tried the "Oculars", "Plug In", in Stellarium it has really helped me select Eyepiece and with redesign for Planet viewing. If not I would encourage giving it a try. I notice there is a bit more fuzzyness than my scope actually has on Jupiter and Saturn. I look forward to trying a 2.3 mm Wide Eyepiece f/ Celestron and a better than stock Secondary Mirror as fortune allows me.
    Cheers!
    Clear Skies!
    Unfortunately for me I'm in PNW and go off others observations throughout most of the yr. except for a couple months of the yr. Probably nothing short of amazing I would continue to opt. to Major in Physics!

    It's so tragic that 90% of the population has 10% of the star light in cities and surrounding light pollution. In truly dark areas you can see the "milky way".

      Check out NASA Night Sky Network:
      nightsky.jpl.nasa.gov
      It’s filled with university and amateur clubs and organizations from across the US.
