Astronomy For Kids and Beginners

I think that everyone who spent a night far away from the polluted modern cities was attracted by the magnificence of the starry night. An urban sky in which one can barely distinguish the outlines of some famous constellation, suddenly becomes a wonderful explosion of lights. "Have you seen the stars tonite?" asked a song of my sixteens. This question has perhaps a meaning, because today, even with a clear sky, the ancient common scene of the starry night has become unseen to an apathetic Humankind.

Anyway kids are Nature lovers, so their interest in starry nights is not so unusual and is probably the consequence of an ancestral memory, when Humankind saw in the presence and in the movements of the Sun, Moon, Planets and Stars, a higher intelligence, a superior will moving space and time.

In that remote time Humankind perceived in the sky the presence of gods and tried to reproduce on earth the home of those gods. The supreme importance of the starry night is well attested to by an incredible knowledge of the sky movements. The ability, for instance, to calculate the time of the eclipses is only one aspect of that.

So, with inside this ancestral memory, one day, probably before Christmas time, is not so uncommon that your child ask you: "Dad, will you buy a telescope for me?" Than, perhaps, you'll remember the far-off day when your parents replay: "No!" to your similar request and so you'll decide to satisfy their wish.

Amateur telescope technology can give you today some easy and good instruments at a very low price, but first of all, to avoid the buying of an idle object, you must have some easy acquaintances.

The answers to some easy questions like:
What do you know?
Where do you live?
What do you want to see?
How much money do you want to spend?
Does there exist a good kids telescope?
...
You can avoid disillusions to you and/or your children and gift you and/or your children extraordinary starry nights.

If you need an instantaneous response to this questions, don't wait for my next articles.
