Thanks Bill and Evan for your responses.
I guess I've always had a passing interest in Astronomy for most of my life, but other things always seemed to get in my way when it came to allocating time for further study. As a newbie here, I'm on a very steep learning curve and I won't be able to contribute much to debate, until my knowledge base has grown considerably. What I perhaps can contribute, is a somewhat fresh approach to the subject, as I come to it with no preconceived ideas or entrenched prejudices.
In the near future, I hope to move to a non-urban location, which might enable me to begin to explore the heavens for myself, with the aid of a telescope. At present, I live in a very light-polluted environment (Wollongong), so I guess it would be fairly pointless to begin such a venture, now.
Cheers for now......John.
