Best Answer

Get a star chart and/or some basic materials in astronomy. Read about what constellations should be visible in your local sky at whatever time of year you are going to observe. Have all the supervision that you need to stay safe while you are having fun. Make sure you are as far away from a large city as you can manage, and you will have better luck on a moonless or nearly moonless night. Be careful; the stars can be addicting. You just may find a life-long interest.

Your eyes.

If you want to see even MORE stars, you could use a telescope. Also a good pair of binoculars are useful for looking at stars and constellations, and sometimes superior to a telescope because binoculars have a wider field of view. Binoculars mounted on a camera tripod makes a good setup.

Nebulae vary in luminosity, and some require VLTs to see, because they aren't bright. In the northern Hempisphere, the most famous of Nebula is the Great Orion Nebula. You can see it with a pair of binoculars, but the veiw gets more spectacular as you get larger telecopes that let in more light(therefore are able to see more). Nearly all nebula require assistance to see. You can't really see them with the Naked Eye

Where on earth can you see most stars at night?

Places with little light pollution are the best to view stars from. High altitude also helps as there is less interference from the atmosphere. Often deserts (e.g. Sahara) are good to view stars from.


Why is it harder to see the stars at night?

Actually, night is the only time you can see stars. Unfortunately, fog, haze, and light pollution make this difficult, especially in large cities. Not entirely correct. The easiest star to view is visible during the day, that being the Sun.


What happens if sun is not present?

You mean, if it is permanently gone, as though it vanished? You know how it gets colder at night, and warmer during the day? If the sun were to disappear, it would continue to get colder and colder. The stars would shine very bright. The earth would continue to spin, but it would no longer orbit the sun. You would see stars day and night, but the moon would go dark. You would only notice it as the stars behind it disappeared from view. Within a few days it would be really cold, and the rivers would freeze. Within a few weeks most lakes would be frozen over, and within a few months even the ocean surface would begin to solidify. There would also be no more years, no more seasons. The stars would not change position from season to season.


Can you see a constellation when the sun is out?

The sun's light makes the stars fade from view... since constellations are made up from patterns of stars, the answer is no - BUT they're still there in the sky - we just can't see them. In fact - the stars that are in the sky during the day, are the ones we see at night 6 months later.

Is it true that venus has the brightest night sky because of its satellite?

No. Venus does not have any satellites. That honor would go to Earth. The night sky of Venus would be completely dark as thick clouds would block the view of the stars and the other planets.

Why do you see other stars at night but not the Sun?

Day and night are caused by Earth rotating. At night the part of Earth you are on is facing away from the sun, so Earth itself blocks the sun from view.
