âMake the Stars Your Old Friends!â . . . with Mike Lynch, Americaâs Master Stargazing instructor. Mike has led stargazing classes for over 30 years and has instructed 1000s of would-be backyard astronomers (and maybe a few would-be professional astronomers!)
Now with New England StarWatch you can easily pick up what beginning and advanced stargazers ages 12 and up have learned in his popular stargazing classes.
Â
⢠Use the detailed seasonal constellation charts to quickly identify their main stars and find âcelestial goodiesâ such as star clusters, nebulae, and other galaxies.
⢠Enjoy the stories and mythology of characters for whom the constellations are named, including Orion the Hunter, Cassiopeia
 the Queen, and Perseus the Hero.
⢠Locate the most prominent seasonal constellations with easy-to-use monthly star maps designed especially for New Englandâs northern latitude.
⢠Learn about the moon, solar and lunar eclipses, planets, as well as comets, meteor showers, and aurora borealis. There is even a planet locator guide good through 2015!
⢠Gain firsthand advice on purchasing a telescope and other stargazing equipment, plus find listings of local astronomy resources.
You wonât find a more enthusiastic guide to the night sky than Mike Lynch, and you wonât find a better guidebook to our night sky than New England StarWatch.
