142. Home Base Bringing astronomy to the masses in and around BloomingtonNormal, Illinois. http://twincityamateurastronomers.org/

Greetings! Greetings and salutations, enlightened web traveller! You have found the home page of the Twin City Amateur Astronomers , bringing astronomy to the masses in the twin cities of Bloomington-Normal, Illinois, and the surrounding county. Since 1960, the members of the Twin City Amateur Astronomers have explored the heavens, sought to share the joys of astronomy with the community, and generally just have a good time. These web pages represent an extension of our mission: now we are not only bringing astronomy to the masses in situ , as it were, but in a virtual way, to people hunched over their computer monitors. Hey, people, straighten up! New, New, New! Astronomy Day is coming! The TCAA will be at Eastland Mall on April 17th, starting at 10 AM. The March 2004 Observer is here for your downloading pleasure. Enjoy! The 2004 Public Observing Schedule is online , and also available for downloading. Need directions to the Sugar Grove Observatory? Click on the SGO link (at left) for details Our Calendar of Events page is still up-to-date!! Authorities are amazed, and demand to know what we've done with the *real* webmaster :-)

143. Irving Family Web Pages: Astronomy astronomy clubs welcome visitors and are always pleased to show off the night sky to people who The sights through amateur telescopes are even more exciting. http://www.irving.org/astronmy/

by Don Irving Virtual Tour of Lick Observatory Our coolest offering for our Astronomy section is our XPLORE Tour of Mt. Hamilton and Lick Observatory. We are proud be recognized for it as Astronomy site of the day for October 17, 1996. If you came here via our home page, you've probably seen it already. If you haven't seen it, then click the XPLORE icon now and embark on the journey! Star Parties If you have never attended an astronomy club star party, you must do so at least once. You do not need a telescope. Astronomy clubs welcome visitors and are always pleased to show off the night sky to people who drop in. The night sky from a hilltop away from city lights is a sight to behold. It is great even without a telescope, with the Milky Way stretching across the sky and occasional shooting stars going by. The sights through amateur telescopes are even more exciting. Things are not as bright and colorful as in magazine pictures, and this sometimes disappoints newcomers. However, sights through a telescope are exciting because you know you are seeing the actual light from the distant objects. The first time you see the actual light from a spiral galaxy thousands of light years away, you will know what I mean. Why don't you look up an astronomy club in your area and go to one of their events. It will be a night to remember. Michael has taken a great interest in astronomy and has compiled some of his thoughts on learning about it Internet Resources There is an enormous wealth of space and astronomy resources on the Internet. With so much available, we will not build a large FTP library of our own. Instead, we provide just a few fun files in our library and provide Web links to the great collection of Internet resources.

WHAT'S NEW This weeks Night Sky: April 26 – May 4, 2002 AN News Alert: Saturday 27th April 2002 Planetary Alignment Comet Ikeya-Zhang Continues to Brighten ... The Universe Today UPDATED DAILY! Foreword by the Society President - William P Recagno Where do we come from? How did the universe begin? Why is the universe the way it is? How will it end? All my life, I have been fascinated by the big questions that face us, and have tried to find scientific answers to them. If, like me, you have looked at the stars, and tried to make sense of what you see, you too have started to wonder what makes the universe exist. The questions are clear, and deceptively simple. But the answers have always seemed well beyond our reach. Until now. The ideas which had grown over two thousand years of observation have had to be radically revised. In less than a hundred years, we have found a new way to think of ourselves. From sitting at the centre of the universe, we now find ourselves orbiting an average-sized sun, which is just one of millions of stars in our own Milky Way galaxy. And our galaxy itself is just one of billions of galaxies, in a universe that is infinite and expanding. But this is far from the end of a long history of inquiry. Huge questions remain to be answered, before we can hope to have a complete picture of the universe we live in.
