How do I find my way?

One very common question in the field of astronomy is How do I find way around the night sky? and How do I know whats what on the moon?

These are two common questions and very relevant ones. Obviously finding your way around the night sky can be done by star hopping and also by using a planishere...a great free online planishere known as Stellarium can be found at http://www.stellarium.org/

Finding your way around the way is simple and easy with the Virtual Moon Atlas. Again 100% free of charge and can be downloaded direct to your PC/Laptop by visiting this website http://www.ap-i.net/avl/en/start

Hope these help and we will look forward to hearing what you thought about these two great software packages
