Just thought I'd drop a note here to say hi.
Now that my kids are giving me a little over 5 minutes in a day, I thought I'd try getting into astronomy a bit more, a subject that has always had me looking up where ever I go.
I have a lousy 8" reflector and have been looking longingly at a couple of different telescopes that some guys and girls had at an open night at Macquarie Uni a while back.
My interests are some of the deep space objects, and the science/physics of stuff going on in space. Having said that, I'm a bit light-on in the detail department!
Anyway, I came across this forum and am very impressed by the professionalism of this site. Nice job indeed!
