Message-ID: <1819@ihldt.UUCP> Date: Mon, 25-Jul-83 09:33:21 EDT Article-I.D.: ihldt.1819 Posted: Mon Jul 25 09:33:21 1983 Date-Received: Tue, 26-Jul-83 23:36:08 EDT Organization: BTL Naperville, Il. Lines: 14 I've recently re-discovered an old interest in amateur astronomy. My background, however is "limited" at best. I was hoping that someone onthe net might be able to recommend good introductory materials on observational astronomy. I need background materials on the terminology, techniques and caculations involved in "star watching". Please respond by mail; if anyone else is interested and I'll forward a copy of my receipts. If enough interest is expressed, I'll post a summary. Thanks, Bruce Peters BTL - Naperville, Ill. ...!ihnp4!ihldt!bnp
