So they choose to arrange their own trips instead of joining a crowded party after they can learn by themselve. Even me, sometimes I find an occasion to go out and sit under the dark clear sky alone. Every star party has a brief preliminary training for beginners. At least you will be taught how to use the star map. The number of attendees usually fits in a bus, or 50-60 people.
Any question is welcome.
I enjoy reading and answering questions. Thai have a set of constellations as well. Sometimes they are not the same. Majority, Thai's would be a subset of western's. I guess that would help me for looking for stars.
