The Desert Mermaid

I loved the book "Maria Mitchell: Girl Astronomer" but despite the many times of reading it and the number of stargazing sessions it inspired, the only constellations I can find are Orion, Cassiopeia, one of the dippers (I've never found both at once, so I never know which one I'm looking at) and sometimes the Pleiades. But check out this cool star chart - it will show you what the sky looks like from where you are at any time and identify what you're looking at!
