Answer 1

Here are some of my favorite Astronomical sites. I hope that you enjoy them! These should keep you busy for a while!

http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/

http://amazing-space.stsci.edu/

http://spaceweather.com/

http://observatorieshodar.com/webcams.ht...

http://www.atoptics.co.uk/

This one will alert you if the International Space Station is passing over you and when and where to look for it. It will also alert you of Iridium Flares too. Those are pretty cool and what most people mistake for UFO's. They are actually just sunlight bouncing off of satellite panels but some are really bright.
