#195: Look at the Stars

Take a look at the stars. If you don’t have a telescope, try binoculars.




Learn more about stars and planets at your local observatory (a place with a large, high-powered telescope—sometimes they have nights where the general public can come and look through their big telescopes), in an astronomy book or online. The best viewing is done away from big cities and towns where streetlights interfere with seeing the stars.


Make this a family activity: Have the whole family go out to look at the stars.

This activity promotes awareness about the universe and creates wonder.
