I've just taken a couple of courses in school on astronomy, and i've
learned sooo many interesting things. I've always had an interest in the
stars, so i've been wanting to put this section up for a while. I've got
so much information now, so I figured there was some things that needed
to be shared. I hope you enjoy this!
Our Moon
Our Sun
Our Solar System
Our Galaxy
Astronomy books to check out
The Universe and Beyond by Terence Dickson (some of the pics posted are from this book)
Skywatching by David H. Levy, this book has great tips on what to watch for!
The Universe Revealed by
Chris Impey and William Hartman
(this is my text, and it's written
pretty simplistically, but it's quite comprehensive with many pretty pics)
And, if you can find it, the
Feb. 2001 issue of National Geographic has some awesom satelite photos
of Mars. It's very neat. I've heard
some new photos are on their way back and will be published
for the public soon. *ping*
Astronomy Links
The Royal Astronomical Society's official site
CLEA-
a great place to find labs on how space stuff works. They're pretty neat
and
provide everything for you :)
Astrology Links
While I don't usually include
this sort of thing in scientific areas, it is something i have an interest
in.
I will try to have an astrology
page set up, but not in relation to astronomy, because they are very much
different fields. BUT MAN, if I
could study astrology at school, I'd be *so* happy!
Astrocenter-
this is a pretty thorough site, with a variety of different fortune telling
methods, I enjoy it
and visit it regularly.
Star Trek Links (if you have more please share!)
Star
Trek.com- The official Star Trek site!
