Starhopping 101 - Section 1 Basics

This is part one of my 30 minute course on how to use astronomical charts to find objects in the sky. The course includes animations to show what you will actually see at the eyepiece.

In this section we will cover some of the basics. I discuss finders, introduce the different kinds of charts, and demonstrate some what some of the symbols on the charts mean.

I have a number of videos planned for release during the next year. For more information see my website
