35 Stunning Hi-Res "Public Domain" Astronomy Images | BittBox - 0 views

  •  
    In the wake of Shepard Fairey's debacle with the AP over the rights to the image he used as reference/inspiration for his wildy popular Obama poster, I wanted to share a list of Public Domain Licensed images, in this case, astronomy. Fairey's situation should hit home with all pixel junkies out there and remind us that we have to pay close attention to the licenses associated with the images we use in our design work. I've compiled a list of beautiful, inspiring astronomy images that all have a Public Domain License.

Yet another "buying your first scope" guide - 0 views

  •  
    Despite all warnings, and sane advice not to buy a telescope, but rather start with a good pair of binoculars, you decided that you want one, no matter what. It's all right; I did the same thing. I think most amateur astronomers did that too

SAO/NASA ADS: ADS Home Page - 0 views

  •  
    The SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) is a Digital Library portal for researchers in Astronomy and Physics, operated by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) under a NASA grant. The ADS maintains three bibliographic databases containing more than 6.9 million records: Astronomy and Astrophysics, Physics, and arXiv e-prints. The main body of data in the ADS consists of bibliographic records, which are searchable through highly customizable query forms, and full-text scans of much of the astronomical literature which can be browsed or searched via our full-text search interface. Integrated in its databases, the ADS provides access and pointers to a wealth of external resources, including electronic articles, data catalogs and archives. We currently have links to over 7.6 million records maintained by our collaborators.

Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy: Home Page - 0 views

  •  
    As an astronomer, teacher, lecturer and all-around science junkie, I am exposed to all sorts of people and their ideas about what goes on in the sky around them. I have been delighted to find that most people are very curious about the night (and day!) sky, but unfortunately a lot of misinformation is spread about astronomy. Sometimes this information is just plain silly, but many times it makes just enough sense that people believe it. Sometimes the news media help spread these ideas (like the one that you can spin or stand an egg on end during the Vernal E

How to become amateur astronomer - Hobbies - 0 views

  •  
    Astronomy is more hot these days than ever before. As a result, all kinds of astronomy equipment can be found, which leads to confusion and leads to unnecessary or wrong purchasing decisions. When you start your way to astronomy, having to spend half an hour to three quarters of an hour to put together the gear is sure to put you inside watching Groundhog day rerun.
