Hershell 400 |
I have been resisting this project for years and years. Why do I want to look up a bunch of galaxies and other stuff just to say I've done it. What does the Hershell 400 have that cataclysmic variables and Gamma Ray Bursts don't. I discovered an answer at Savage the other night. It's just a different way to enjoy the heavens. Why go to all the trouble? Because it's fun! |
DDoesn't it just take up time that could be used to collect science? Hmmm, yup guess it does. But you know, Everest wasn't build in a day, and the cataclysmic variables and Gamma Ray Bursts will be there whenever. I think that once a month, I can give up the hard core and indulge in the soft core. II'm constructing the pages as I go along, so the pages are very much under construction, and will be for a good while. My source is Uranometria, the new one, and for now, my NGC objects come only from Volume 1 at this time. My directions require movements in the four cardinal directions, so polar alignment is a help. I am experimenting with the IO pen, so you will find my stuff handwritten. I am doing this for two reasons really. The first being that it is just easier to use a pen than a keyboard sitting at the kitchen table within easy reach of the coffee pot, and the second is that I just like the pen better. There's probably a third or maybe a forth reason that I just can't get my hands on right now, but when I do, maybe I'll clue you in. There is a down-side though, my handwriting, but I think it's clear enough to get you where you want to go if you haven't become the kind of snob that will only read the typewritten word. (Don't laugh, I know folks, who in the name of efficiency, tight-rear-ed-ness, or other clinical problems, just won't make the attempt.) ick here to add your text. |
