Stories about spectacular meteor showers often appear in the news. We know that editors like to exaggerate a bit to entertain their readers, so what will you see in reality?

To celebrate our brand new web site and just in time for Christmas shopping, we've produced a short guide to choosing your first telescope. We often  get asked which telescope to choose. The simple fact is that there isn’t one ‘best’ telescope for the beginner, or anyone else for that matter. It all depends on your needs and circumstances. Our short guide explains telescope basics, asks you to answer a few simple questions to narrow down the choices and then presents a list of possibilities. There’s something for everyone and for every budget. So why not head over to our Free Astronomy Resources page and download your copy today?...
