If unable to answer someone`s question personally, I will know how to quickly find the answer online, because I keep myself informed about developments in the field and I know where to look for information. | Available

| Astronomy has been my hobby/pasttime for over 50 years. Currently own 3
telescopes, the largest of which is a 30 inch Newtonian truss Dob that is portable.
I taught Astronomy/Meteorology at the University Level for 13 years before retiring
in 1995. Being retired and home most of the time, I am able to answer all questions relatively quickly, unless it's a new moon weekend with good observing conditions. No astrology questions, please! | Available
