Hi and welcome to the wonderful universe.

New to astronomy you will find a lot of strange words, I have done a astronomical dictionary with links to Wikipedia as a help.

http://astrofriend.eu/astronomy/astronomical-dictionary/astronomical-dictionary.html

I hope it will give you some of the answeres on your thoughts about universe.

And I think it will be interesting even for you who alreday are experienced, I read in it a lot and always find something new.

Hi Brian,
Thanks for your positive comments. You can find great and high quality answeres at Wikipedia and not only in English, a lot of other languages too. It was just that you don't have that overview that I want. That's way I created this linklist. And Wikipedia develops with help of people all over the world, and you can add or correct the answeres there too.

If there is some missing worlds in my list and there is an answere at Wikipedia, let me know!

It's a great dictionary. I'm a beginner myself so I'm going to take a look :) I have only read a handful of books so far and watched a few documentaries here and there but I'm interested to learn even more!

You can learn a lot by reading the Wiki pages. It just can be a bit difficuld to find the answers.

I think I can stay reading at Wiki forever, when halfway throu the text you have four new pages to read. But I like it.

Thanks for the comments!
