I have been interesested in Astronomy since I was a kid but have only just got down
to doing anything serious about it. I have joined the local astronomy club and have
developed a web site for them:
South East Essex Astronomical Society.
I have a home brew 10" cassegrain/newton that I bought second hand and am just coming
to terms with finding my way around. You can see
more about this
on my wife's web site where she documented the setting up of the beast.
I once answered a question for someone about the waxing and waning of the moon.
It seemed to me that the answer would make a good FAQ so I have put it in to HTML and
decided to start a list of FAQs for beginners. These will all be biased towards those
interested in stars and the solar system or are just curious about things but have no
expertise. My aim is to give the answer in a way that the reader can see why things
are the way the are. This is not a place for the serious amateur, unless wanting to
contribute some ideas. |
