A lot has changed in astronomy in the 10 years since I finished the first edition of this book. One thing that hasn’t changed, unfortunately, is the CAT in the Closet Syndrome. Some people get enthusiastic about astronomy, rush out to buy a big, fancy SCT, use it a few times, and deposit it in a closet, where it remains until it’s eventually sold. Other new amateurs get a ‘scope, aim at the stars, and keep going year after year. How do you remain interested in observing season after season? (Fig. 13.1). |
