Good Astronomy Website

Chance upon this good website which highlights information on stars, planets, nebulas etc. Not too many jargons but enough to thrill.

There are 2 good ones :
1. Will Tirion and Brina Skiff's Bright Star Atlas is an example. Astroscientific at the Science centre do sell it although it a little more advanced for the beginner.
Thanks bro!

Re: Info on Constellations

Thanks Bro. Yesterday I was looking at Saturn near scorpio. Thought of looking at clusters when moon is out. But realize without GOTO is not going to be that easy. So tot of knowing at least where these objects of interest are located in their constellations.

WTB : A piece of Thousand Oaks Solar Film [Bought]

Hi,

Wondering if anyone has excess of thousand oaks solar film? I don't need the entire A4 piece - just a 5X5 cm size to cover a front portion of my dust cover. Willing to pay a reasonable amount for this. [smilie=admire.gif]

Bro Vincent had generously given me a piece to try out. Thanks Vincent.
