complete beginner trying to read the stars to find North. Am i right in looking for orion first, then look for the plough (big dipper is it?) which then points toward the North star.
Is there a site that publishes recent night sky photos from this region with these items identified.
i'm fascinated by the fact navigation was once by the stars.
any advice on the best way of starting to identify the stars would be very welcome.
