Ask HN: Learning the Basics of Astronomy

Since I finished my PhD and left the university, I have been trying to learn new subjects besides work, whenever wife and child leave a few hours of free time per week. I have always been interested in anything to do with planets, stars, etc. The new pictures of black holes and the James Webb telescope have put me under a new spell. So I decided to invest some time in learning the basics of astronomy over the next 12 months.

What resources can you recommend to move from the typical general education with a bit of basic physics to a better understanding of the basic principles of astronomy?
