What is a good telescope for a ten year old child?
by kern.justin
Question by ccisa3@sbcglobal.net: What is a good telescope for a ten year old child?
My son wants one for Christmas. I have found tons on Ebay in different price ranges, of course-but I have no clue what is junk and what is good. I don't want to spend hundreds on his first one because I am not positive how far he will go with Astronomy. I need to get it ordered in the next couple of days so I can get it on time. Thanks for any ideas.

UFO - Above & Beyond. James Doohan - "Scotty" from Star Trek - hosts this documentary that contains some of the best examples of UFO footage. It rehashes classic events or ancient cave paintings depicting alien craft and entities, as well as more contemporary sightings and oddities - such as events seen over Phoenix, Miami and Las Vegas. Which makes this documentary stand out are perhaps the moon shots, photos of UFOs on and around the moon and the space shuttles.Author: pignanelli65Source:

No exploration; no migration; no colonization. Any intelligent life is pretty much going to be confined to their very own planetary abode or solar system.

I am a current Senior in high school, and I just want to take an Astronomy class for fun.

HOW can I do this? My school counselor has not been much of a help. I don't want to do the class through a college, because

According to Indian astrology the Moon rules the house four and is the sign of cancer. As Sun and Saturn it is also one planet which represents your emotions and feelings. The Sun represents the mind or will, and Saturn is the body. Many people relate more to one than the other. If you work out in the gym you are making use of your Saturn power, If any person from you working in gem that's mean he is using all of his powers there due to Saturn.

ANCIENT ALIENS -- with ERICH VON DANIKEN - Part 1/7
If ancient aliens visited Earth, what was their legacy, and did they leave behind clues that exist in plain sight? Sophisticated aircraft. Complex electrical grids. Intricate construction machinery. Indian Sanskrit texts, dating back to 6000 BC, describe in varying but vivid detail flying machines called Vimanas. Megalithic stone structures in Egypt reveal evidence of precision saw work. Interpretations of the Jewish Zohar writings offer depictions of a life-sustaining manna machine, eerily

First Moon Landing 1969
The video of the very first moon landing of the apollo 11 mission in 1969! Neil Armstrong was the first man to set foot on the moon with his now legenday words "One small step for man, a giant leap for mankind." This is a truly amazing video and it was in 1969!!! If you think about it, you have orders of magnitude more processing power in your mobile phone than they did in the whole space craft!! Incredible!

Attraction Insider: Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy at Disneyland Resort
The journey begins as a typical launch into deep space. However, as the vehicles climb towards the stars, the voyage suddenly goes awry, hurling the voyagers into an uncharted section of the universe. A galaxy where haunted star clusters, supernovas and other cosmic phenomenon threaten the travelers at every turn. The adventure is one close call after another, until, finally, the craft plummets into a wormhole, returning safely home . . .or does it???Author: DisneyParksSource:

The information you need before buying your Bed Frames
The modern day consumer is spoilt for choices. Even a couple of decades ago anyone who would've needed to buy a new bed would probably get a wooden one from the furniture store.

Not only are there different choices for furniture shops, there are variations in design as well. Even today the idea of having a double bed frame is still

The main problem people have with regards to making money online, is quite simply - they don't ever get enough TRAFFIC to their Websites - not enough people ever get to see their offers, hence they always experience mediocre results...perhaps, a handful of sales here and there.
It's no use having a wonderful Website, with a wonderful offer, at a wonderful price if hardly anyone ever gets to see it. A lot of website owners spend a lot of time adding good content to their sites (which is good),

What happens to the space shuttle rocket and boosters?

I know the side booster things fall off first, and later the whole rocket detaches. But where do they land? In the water, I'm guessing, but if the space shuttle is way up in outer space by the time the rocket parts fall away, how can they be sure

What is the meaning of "naked eye" astronomical observation?
Question by GaryB: What is the meaning of "naked eye" astronomical observation?
A friend of mine travels to an observatory to look through their telescope and calls it "naked eye" observation. I expressed my belief that such observation is done lying on one's back in a meadow, not with a telescope. He says that "naked eye" just means without a camera. He's the astronomer but I still think I'm right.
Best answer:
Answer by tekwatcherNaked eye = unaided viewing

Interesting Sights From A Large Telescope Mirror
A telescope is an instrument designed to look into faraway places. The first ones were created as far back as the 11th century by Arabian scientists. This era was known as the Golden Age of Islam and the invention of the optical lens that later lead to the development of the first telescope was one of numerous inventions of many other 'firsts' by Arab or Muslim Scientists.
