I vividly remember when I was six, gazing out of my bedroom window with a desire to learn the names of the bright stars and the patterns I knew existed in the form of constellations. Little did I know what I had started - a lifelong trip which never ceases to amaze me.
Hopefully I can share some of my wonderment through these pages. None of this is rocket science. The name of the stargazing game is easy, short observing whenever you have a few spare moments while the stars are twinkling overhead. Living in a town, city or anywhere with light-polluted skies need not deter anyone form stargazing. Although the sku glow washes out the fainter stars, the major constellations will still be visible. It won't take long to learn the night sky, and I hope this book will insire you to make a start.
