Starwatcher Posted January 31, 2019 Report Posted January 31, 2019 Introducing: ME! Just found this forum a day or so ago, and it looks interesting, so here I am. Not sure how much I will participate, but we shall see! I'm a Yank living in the UK, so I'm 8 hours ahead of West Coast US folks. Not sure what else to say -- I did leave more info in my profile, so go there if you want to see more. Quote

mikbone Posted February 3, 2019 Report Posted February 3, 2019 There are a few amature astronomers here. What is your background in astronomy, based off your avatar and profile? Quote

What is your background in astronomy, based off your avatar and profile? I'm just an amateur. I don't even own a telescope -- so perhaps using "watcher"is a bit of an exaggeration. But I do read and study a great deal about astronomy, because I find the subject endlessly fascinating. I was tremendously excited when New Horizons launched, and closely followed news about its progress. One of my favorite YouTube videos was this: anatess2 and mikbone 2 Quote

No need to answer that. I was just playing. Quote
