Astronomy

I love astronomy. I use to work as the assistant director of a planetarium and routinely taught customers about the night sky and showed them the wonders of the heavens through the telescopes we had at our observatory. Within the last couple of years I acquired my first useful telescope (not a little tiny fancy monocular that you find at most department stores). I am often called on to bring my telescope to scout camp outs or other group activities, and enjoy doing so. These pictures include the day I received my telescope, “some assembly required”, and a couple of photos with friends looking through the telescope at a party. There are also some pictures we took of the moon during a lunar eclipse. The moon looks darkened because the moon was passing through the Earth’s shadow.
