Features: This book takes basic astronomical knowledge and the latest achievements as its main thread, with the aim of guiding astronomical observation activities. Considering the learning characteristics of teenagers, we primarily use beautiful astronomical images to showcase the content, making the book visually engaging. The book introduces knowledge about the Earth, Moon, solar system, Milky Way, and the stellar world, as well as common astronomical phenomena, in a step-by-step manner from near to far and from simple to complex. It dedicates a significant portion to explaining the principles, performance, and usage of astronomical telescopes, as well as how to conduct astronomical photography activities and specific shooting methods for different celestial bodies and phenomena. We hope this book can serve as a helpful guide for teenagers to learn about astronomy, understand cosmic celestial bodies, and master basic astronomical observation methods. At the same time, it can also provide guidance for science teachers in primary and secondary schools when organizing astronomical activities in schools.
