I've been pondering and researching for experiment ideas. The part of Science that fascinates me most is astrononomy, unfortunately to experiment on stars and planets I would require at least a telescope which is too much fuss to get. To compromise I have found an experiment that shows me how to make clouds which is the nearest thing to space I can find so far. Other ideas are testing the chemistry of oils and making soap. Aside from the facts I know about making an experiment, there must be other obstacles in obtaining equipment. I have searched the availability of hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide. They can be purchased from pharmacies for $5-$25 and I will be able to get quantities of 80mL to 100mL. The rest of the material for making clouds should be found at home.
Please contact me if you know any experiments that I'll enjoy now that you know I like things associated with astronomy.

You can do a few things associated with astronomy, but not necessarily looking at stars or anything! Things like looking at light waves, light diffusion, heat, etc... that's all related to stars and astronomy!
