I'd like to learn more about astronomy. What are some good resources for beginners?

1.  The American Association of Variable Star Observers has a great beginner's guide to astronomy and variable stars, which can be found at https://www.aao.org/education/star-guide/.
2.  NASA also has an excellent website with lots of information on the basics of astronomy as well as links to other helpful resources such as star charts and tutorials: http://science.nasa.gov/astrophysics/focus-areas/astronomy-basics/.
