... first star I see tonight ...
As a child I loved to look up into the sky at night, look for the moon and predict to my parents if it was going to rain tomorrow. But I never looked at the stars, just because there were so many of them and I couldn't really tell one star from another, no matter what people may say about all those star formations that have names like the Big Dipper. (I would think of the Big Gulp instead! LOL!)
But if I had the super-cool meade my sky gizmo, I'm sure I would have spent hours gazing at the sky and identifying all sorts of celestial objects. (I wonder if UFOs are included as celestial objects? Hmm...) It couldn't get any simpler than point-shoot-and-identify to explore the universe around us, and it comes with the ability to control a Meade computerized telescope. Not just for kids, this is something even adults could spend hours on and it makes for a great family activity, yea? So maybe when you're thinking about a birthday or Christmas gift for the science lover in your life, the meade my sky could fit the bill.
