Hi! I'm new here! I have not much knowledge in star gazing and astronomy but I have a lot of interest in it and I hope to learn more about it here! I have no expensive scopes although I hope to get one when I can, but I've saw a couple of shooting stars with my naked eye when I was in Langkawi.
I am from Tampines, btw. So I might show up at some star gazing sessions near here some time..
Hi Moonlite. Welcome to Singastro. In addition to reading up in this forum, you can also borrow telescope and stargazing books and magazines from your local library (section 520).
You don't need a very expensive scope to enjoy this hobby. Have fun joining us in future observations.
"The importance of a telescope is not how big it is, how well made it is.
It is how many people, less fortunate than you, got to look through it."

Hi Moonlite ... nice to have you at the Singastro Forum.
Hi Weixing... BTW... may be its time to have a Bedok Reservoir Astro Night event again. 2 nights back at Changi Coast Road, i saw a very nice Scorpion tail, and even a nice fussy ball of the Omega Centauri with bare eyes at the south sky. Southern Cross was very sharp. The night sky was filled with stars.
Welcome moonlite! It's always a learning process for everyone and the best part about it is the Fun!
I stay in Pasir Ris and not too far from the Tampines end. PM if you have queries or wanna meet up Astro wise. I'll be glad to help! Yes, weixing has Obs at a field in Tampines or we could await the next Bedok Reservoir session! Sometimes Remus does one at Eunos. I saw a nice field along Upper Changi near the Expo which is nice and dark. May wanna check it out some day before some development starts!
So once again...welcome to the club!
My wife never complained about how much time, effort & money I spent on my Astronomy hobby!................suddenly I met her!!!
