If you're new to astronomy and you're wondering what all the technical jargon you read around here really means, then be sure to check out the
Glossary of Terms
on the IceInSpace main site.
If you're still unsure, please don't hestitate to post here and ask!
If you think anything should be added to the glossary, please let me know. Likewise if you find any errors.
Thanks to Ken (ballaratdragons) for compiling the glossary.
