Astronomy for Beginners
22 Aug 2009, 00:00 UTC
There are many people who have never used a telescope, or who have had a telescope recently but do not know how to use it. I will tell you a little about telescopes, what you can see with your naked eye and other things that you need to know to learn more about the night sky. So, this is for you who need a push to the right direction. My name is Assiye Süer, but everybody calls me Assi, and I graduated from high school last year (2008). Now, I'm working at the observatory in Gothenburg, Sweden. And I will probably study astrophysics this year. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SPONSOR: NRAO
The 365 Days of Astronomy Podcast is a project that is publishing one podcast per day, 5 to 10 minutes in duration, for all 365 days of 2009. The podcast episodes are written, recorded and produced by people around the world. We are looking for individuals, schools, companies and clubs to provide 5 - 10 minutes of audio for the daily podcast. You can do as few as 1 episode or up to 12 episodes (one per month, subject to our editorial discretion). Our goal is to encourage people to sign up for a particular day (or days) of 2009.
