Universe Sampler 
The
Universe Sampler observing program is a unique observing program designed
specifically for the beginning observer. It is designed to expose the beginner
to a sample of the many different types of objects that the Universe has to
offer for our observing enjoyment. It is designed to help the new observer learn
his or her way around the sky and to teach some of the basics of astronomy. It
offers an alternate naked-eye list of deep sky objects for those who are
interested in astronomy but shy away because they do not have a telescope or
binoculars. By Amelia Goldberg, copyright 1999.
