If you likes the Sun, don't miss this beautiful resource of images and movies about the closest star to the Earth planet!

There are many incredible phenomena on the Sun, not all of them are visible in the optical band: most of them are accessible in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

At the first step in the amateur astronomy you can't miss the knowledge of the sky and its constellations.

So, a beautiful starting point is Stellarium Web Star Map.

With this service you can see in your browser the nightsky at your location, artificial satellites, planets, the Moon and all the principal periodical comets transiting in this season.

The Virtual Observatory is a great service for all of amateur astronomers and scientists in related fields.

My first reference for astronomical images is the SkyView, then the image service of PanSTARRS, and finally the Legacy Survey Archive.
