General Astronomy

"To boldly go where no man has gone before..." With those immortal words, Gene Roddenberry and the Star Trek Universe had me hooked. Space has always fascinated me. We are just one tiny speck in the universe, and there is so much we don't know. That's what makes space so fascinating - the possibilities are endless!

As time permits, I will be creating pages for different aspects of astronomy - from the solar system to space exploration. I am also listing some of my own personal favorite astronomy links.
