• I want to surprise my Ukrainian wife and learn Ukrainian

  Memrise.com offers Ukrainian learning right now. Source: 12 months ago

• What is the best method to learn Japanese?

  If you want a guided course try Memrise or Duolingo. Source: about 1 year ago

• I'm probably saying goodbye to Duolingo with a one-hundred-day streak.

  It is slow and designed to be easy. In its defense it is a casual app designed to be used casually. On the other hand, I took the German and Dutch courses in 2019-2020 and got enough basis in them to be able to now listen/watch content in the languages and to learn from the languages. I continued the German through many of https://learngerman.dw.com excellent courses. Which certainly took me further and got me... Source: about 1 year ago

• I want to speak to my Turkish grandparents in 4 months time

  I learnt some basics from the site memrise.com and im still learning. Even talking with my turkish friends and their family helps me a lot to get better. Everytime I have the chance to speak with someone in turkish, I do it, no matter if im good or not. Everyone I met so far, was so kind and was surprised about it why I'm learning it and they helped me. Source: about 1 year ago

• Going to a Bortle 2 area over the summer, how would the Milky Way look?

  You don't have to have a telescope, but you should at least take a set of binoculars and install the SkySafari app on your cell phone or tablet. Make certain to be familiar with the SkySafari on your mobile device because urban and suburban astronomers often become disoriented because dense star fields make dark skies look so different. I also keep a copy of Sky & Telescope's Sky Atlas with me as a hard copy... Source: about 1 year ago

• Hi guys, brand new to the sub and had a few questions

  Binoculars like these. And an app like this or this. Head out to dark skies if you can. Pro Tip: a bean bag makes a great binocular observing chair. Source: over 1 year ago

• Where can I learn quick astronomy, identifying constellations, identifying things in the night sky?

  As for apps, feel free to try out my app Nightshift if you're on Android. Other often recommended apps are SkySafari and Stellarium. Each app offers different features, so in the end it's a matter of personal preference or needs. Source: about 2 years ago

• Identifying when to view planets

  Stellarium as suggested gives you the opportunity to see which planets are above the horizon at any given time. If you want to to see what planets are visible in any given night without the need to scroll through the entire night, most astronomy apps like SkySafari have a 'Best of Tonight' feature that also lists the planets.

• Help with gso encoder kit

  This is the Encoder Kit, like this one here. You need to connect your encoders to another device, like Nexus II (which what I have) or Nexus DSC Pro. Nexus II has its own WiFi network, which you can connect to with your phone/tablet. Then you can use app like SkySafari on your phone/tablet to connect to your telescope/Nexus II, by doing this your telescope will be a "Push-To" not "Go-To". Source: over 2 years ago
