It's even better if you have a telescope or binoculars. Both allow you to see planets, the moon, and stars even closer. Telescopes are more powerful than binoculars. With a telescope, you can see the moon close enough to see its features. Labeled images like this one can help you find different places on the moon or other objects in the night sky. Even without a telescope, you will still be able to find some of these place

What does this mean for you and your stargazing? Well, you may not make any major discoveries like Galileo did, but you can look up at the sky in your own backyard. You can see the moon and many of the same stars that early astronomers saw. You can even see planets. For example, this is an image of Venus, Mars, and the moon, as seen from Earth without a telescope or binoculars. It is amazing what you can find if you just look up!
