Alternatively charge to see some stars (5)
I believe the answer is:
orion
'some stars' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'alternatively charge' is the wordplay.
'alternatively' becomes 'or'.
'charge' becomes 'ion' (an ion is a charged particle).
'or'+'ion'='ORION'
'to see' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for orion that I've seen before include "Major constellation" , "A giant hunter in Greek legend, and a constellation" , "Group in heaven" , "Heavenly figure" , "One who would hunt" .)
