This article discusses a cheap star gazing set-up in a child´s bedroom. It only required a cheap black and white (B&W) video camera and a form of projection TV pointed at the ceiling. A wireless 2.4-GHz 9-V battery powered charge coupled device (CCD) camera complete with a receiver and demodulator is used.
