astronomy is one of the astonishing areas where anyone can deal with. wonders of the skies takes you away from everyday issues and stress. as an amateur astronomer i strongly recommend every stock trader or anyone with a job which has stress in it, to deal with astronomy. watching heavens during a clear night is invaluable experience for anyone. if you think that this is hard job, you are very mistaken. neither expensive equipment nor scientific knowledge is needed for starting amateur astronomy. even bare eyes are enough to releive daily stress off you. i began amateur astronomy with a binocular and a sky atlas given by a magazine. later i purchased a small telescope and a planetarium program for my computer. this program enables you to easily find and locate objects in the sky and later to watch them by the telescope. after some time passes and you are experienced enough, you will improve your knowledge through research and also your equipment. the bigger the telescope its better. but later you will realize that even the biggest amateur telescope has some limits. then you will canalyse your efforts to research being done by professionals. you can be a member of amateur astronomer communities and carry on research by the equipment of these university observatories or you can more easily carry on research by your computer. that is, you can use internet as the most sophisticated equipment and watch heavens with the eyes of hubble, the best telescope mankind has made. i confess that after all these years, best amateur astronomy is made by a pair of binoculars. get one and look at our satellite, the moon. if the moon is not a full moon you will be astonished by the detail you will see. try to see the edges of the craters and the shadows made by the hills around the craters. it is amazing experience.
