| I am an amature astronomer and have been studying cosmology at Chicago`s Adler Planetarium ever since comet Hale Bopp appeared in 1997 but have always had an interest in the cosmos. I have a Celestron 4.5" f8 aperature 910 mm focal length Newtonian reflector telescope with an equatorial mount. Anyone in the Chicago area can have a look. I will need to know your age so I will know how detailed the answer should be. | Available

| I can answer questions in German as well as English. All about the mysteries of space, history, current & planned projects, new theories and experiments. Also about Space-travel. I would like to encourage kids to learn about this and possibly join the new up-and-coming space race. Please feel free to ask any question as simple or complex as you wish! | Available
