This means that you'll need to get know your way around the sky: that's part of the fun and learning experience. So you'll need a planisphere and red torch and maybe a yearbook of what's happening up there from month to month. These are bundled together in "Bintels' Essential Accessory Pack" for $44.

Good luck!
