Not bad. I'm actually watching "The Cosmos" by Carl Sagan right now. It's worth a look if you like Astronomy. It's a combination of Astronomy, science/knowledge, and philosophy; many don't like Sagan because he was an athiest, but I liked it enough to spend $120 bucks on it; it's probably available through your local library, or if you're up for a couple hours drive are welcome to borrow mine.

My all time favorite's the famous Hubble Deep Field; in a view that is less than a grain of sand, the photograph of over ten thousand galaxies is worth a look. All of the stars in our sky belong to just a small corner of one galaxy, it has a habit of placing the size of our egos, history, and existences to a very finite level.
"The image required 800 exposures taken over the course of 400 Hubble orbits around Earth. The total amount of exposure time was 11.3 days, taken between Sept. 24, 2003 and Jan. 16, 2004."
Galaxies themselves are very faint and require long exposures (where you have to carefully adjust the telescope to account for the Earth's rotation), since they lack enough visible light to be seen by a naked eye. However, I'm not sure if Hubble has ever been taken out of geosyncronous orbit.

I love it too but isn't that astronomy?
Astrology is horoscope and that.
