You film how-to videos teaching city dwellers how to learn astronomy with cheap gear.
This is a YouTube teaching channel. You show city dwellers how to learn astronomy with cheap gear, as a repeating series (sky sessions). You get paid when people watch (ads, once the channel qualifies), join as members, click affiliate links, or buy a small guide you wrote. A normal week is shoot, edit, publish a title that states the result, and answer comments. Plan on dozens of videos before this pays rent. A clear lesson beats lifestyle footage.
YouTube Partner Program: 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 public watch hours before ads. A phone is enough; a lav + tripod is typically $40–80. First ad dollar is commonly 6–18 months (YouTube Help / Creator Academy).
Each required material has a matching shop listing — photo, price, and a way to add it to the cart.
Phone adapter
Phone tripod adapter
A clamp that puts your phone on any standard tripod thread. Cold-shoe optional; this is not a gimbal and not a full tripod.
Tripod
Tabletop tripod
Tabletop tripod. A small tripod that stands on a table or a stack of books. Phone and camera threads included. Not a 6-foot lighting stand.
Public examples matched to this path by what they actually publish — not endorsements, and not a claim they run this exact shop. Handles change. Verify before you write to anyone.
