Self taught.
How does one define astronomy? It involves optics, observational knowledge and experience, mapping, photography, chemistry, gravitational physics, quantum physics, theoretical speculation, cosmology, history, philosophy and so much more. The subject has so many branches one can only hope to be somewhat knowledgeable in some areas and a little knowledgeable of the broader spectrum. I enjoy each and every new discovery!

Regards, Rob
