The list below is only a small tribute to our observers' efforts and
dedication. To them we "take our hats" and say - THANK YOU!!!
Keep observing!!!

Welcome to the Astro-Nuts Homepage
(The Astronomy Beginner's Help Site)
This site was last updated 2/19/05. Your Author
Hi,
Welcome the the Astro-Nuts Website and thanks for visiting. I hope to provide some basic beginner's help to my fellow beginning astro-nuts. Astronomy can be both a wonderful and a frustrating hobby. The keys to getting through the frustrations are patience and asking questions.
Astronomers are a unique group of folks who welcome newcomers to the hobby with open arms and are always happy to share their experiences. So, don't be afraid to ask what you may think is a "dumb" question. Chances are we've all asked the same one at some point or another.
The wonderful thing about astronomy is that it opens up the vastness of the universe to you. Thanks to this fantastic hobby I've seen examples of other worlds, other stars, and other galaxies. I've traveled millions of light-years into space and time and all from the comfort of my own backyard.
First, a little information about myself. My name is Kevin Daly, I'm married and a father of 4 currently residing in Seymour, CT. I began in astronomy a few years ago by using 7 X 50 Binoculars. My current scopes are a Celestron 4.5" Newtonian Reflector, a Skywatcher 120mm Refract , both on German Equatorial Mounts, a dobsonian mounted Criterion 8" f/7.5 Newtonian Reflector, a Celestron 60mm Refractor, and a MCO 4" Maksutov Cassegrain Spotting Scope (my "travel scope").

History and Philosophy of Western Astronomy
Chapter index in this window Chapter index in separate window
This material (including images) is . See my for fair use practices. Now that you have some feeling for the scales of time and space that astronomy This chapter covers the development of western astronomy and modern science. I focus on the rise of modern science in Europe, from the ancient Greeks to Isaac Newton. Other cultures were also quite interested and skilled in astronomy (the Mayans (link will display in another window), Egyptians, peoples of India and China come immediately to mind), but the Greeks were the first ones to try to explain how the universe worked in a logical, systematic manner using models and observations. Modern astronomy (and all of science) has its roots in the Greek tradition. If you would like a more thorough discussion of the history of astronomy than what I will present here, please take a look at Science and the Human Prospect by Ronald Pine (links will display in another window). I will give dates of when certain persons lived and worked to give you some reference points in the long history of astronomy. Don't worry about memorizing the dates. What is more important is to see the development of ideas and methods of modern science. I include images of world atlases from different time periods in this chapter and the next as another way to illustrate the advances in our understanding of our world and the universe. Links to the sites from which the photographs came are embedded in the images. Select the picture to go to the site. The vocabulary terms are in

    Ray Berg prepares to make observations. AAVSO data contributed by thousands of observers over decades is vital to variable star research. Annually, AAVSO Headquarters receives between 200-300 requests for data from researchers, members, observers, and educators. The AAVSO data are used extensively to correlate multi-wavelength observations of variable stars, scheduling ground-based and satellite observations, and for analysis of stellar behavior. Papers using AAVSO data are published by researchers, members, observers, and AAVSO staff. This page is an attempt to list these papers which are a testimony to the dedication and contribution of thousands of observers around the world who contribute data to the AAVSO International Database. It also serves as a partial reference to variable star research. To make this list more complete, we need your help. Please
