A one-stop introduction to how to do astronomy in the digital age. Thanks to modern technology, there is no longer a daunting boundary for those of us who wish to experience what it is like to actually do astronomy. Starting with a simple camera & laptop, it is possible to create beautiful images of the stars & the Moon, & perhaps, with a larger lens, to capture the rings of Saturn or the Moons of Jupiter.
