The Astronomical Data Center specializes in archiving and distributing collections of data that have been published by professional astronomers. Most of these data sets are in the form of computer-readable tables of numbers, rather than images.

Tectron Collimation Tools Imagine a book nearly eight inches thick, containing thousands of pages and photographs - all on your favorite hobby. Now imagine that every three months another 68 page chapter and another hundred plus photos are added to this book. This is Amateur Astronomy Magazine! Our articles are not written by professional writers. They are written by our subscribers, amateur astronomers who know their subject and their articles reflect their love of the hobby. The articles are not edited to death so they have no life left in them. We are subscriber supported. That means that we can say what we want. If a reviewer does not like a product, we can say so, since we don't bow to the almighty advertising dollar. Each issue contains 68 pages - and less than eight pages contain advertising. We only carry enough ads to help pay the bills. We cover the subjects that you will never see in the big magazines. If we don't like a telescope or book we say so. When we go to a star party we run many pages and dozens of photos, not a paragraph or two with one small photo that doesn't tell the real story. One article ran 20 pages and had 108 photos, just to do justice to the story. We carry articles that the real amateur astronomers of the world are interested in reading - not articles that are aimed at the news stand market of casual readers, or intended for professional astronomers.

CRITERIA FOR IDENTIFYING AN ASTRONOMER AS AN AMATEUR INTRODUCTION One might hope to simply pick up a book and review the history of astronomy to understand the contributions of amateurs. However, amateur astronomers are less visible than they should be in the literature of astronomy. Significant contributions by amateur astronomers are generally recognized, but the identification of the individual contributor as an amateur is frequently unclear. As a consequence, amateur astronomers today have little sense of what the contributions of amateurs have been in a historical sense. In part, this problem stems from current usage of the word "amateurish" as a pejorative, representing something not well done or lacking in quality. This unfortunate usage has distorted the historical meaning of the word amateur, broadly someone who works for the love of the work being done. Therefore, it is appropriate to first clarify what is meant by "amateur astronomer". TO IDENTIFY AN ASTRONOMER There is a fairly simple ground rule which may be applied to identify an amateur astronomer. Such an individual must first be an astronomer. If that determination can be made, then it should be a simple matter to determine whether or not the astronomer is an amateur or a professional. The crucial decision is whether or not an individual is working at the science of astronomy. Using a few simple criteria to test this point will help us distinguish an astronomer from others who may, from time to time, look at the night sky. Here are some criteria to assist that identification:

That way more people, who are denied the opportunity of viewing the skies we take for granted could enjoy the wonders of astronomy, daylight solar and night time viewing without the discomfort of bugs,humidity,light pollution, etc..
