Astronomy for me is a complete interest-
I can explore the skies and enjoy its infinite gems.
I can study and speculate about the origins of stars, galaxies and the Universe as a whole. It feeds my scientific and mathematical curiosity.
I can philosophise about the purpose of our existence. I find a certain peace at night under the stars, a sense of awe and a conviction that we are no accident of nature.
Of course, you share all the above with people of like interest.
Thus, astronomy for me is hands-on and visually exciting, an intellectual challenge, a spiritual endeavour and a focal point for people everywhere.
Regards, Rob.
