Welcome to my astronomy website. I've been interested in astronomy all my life, and I've been an active amateur astronomer since 1996. I'm strictly a visual observer (meaning I like to look through the eyepiece of a telescope, rather than take pictures with it). I like all kinds of observing, including shallow-sky (Moon, planets, asteroids, comets), deep-sky (galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters), as well as sidewalk astronomy (sharing astronomy and views through the eyepiece with the general public). |
|
I'm very active in both of San Francisco's astronomy organizations, the San Francisco Amateur Astronomers and the San Francisco Sidewalk Astronomers. I'm past-President of SFAA, and I currently maintain the Sidewalk Astronomer's website. |
