I am a female amateur astronomer/astro-photographer. Most folks think
I'm a bit different. Many ask about astrology. I know alot about that
too. A very select few ask about astronomy. Astrology is what brought
me into my study of astronomy. I needed to know and see what Venus in
Leo looked liked rising above the Atlantic Ocean in degrees
corresponding to the time of my birth. I needed to see my Virgo Sun, my
Libra Mercury, my Taurus Full Harvest Moon and my Pisces Mars.

I have been fortunate enough to find a few other folks with limited
interest in astronomy, and have been able to convey "our" interest to
their children. A township police officer's boy just received his Boy
Scout badge in astronomy with the help of my Astroscan.

I no longer have a problem going to a dark sky site. I divorced my
husband of 19+ years and found a wonderful new husband, who is
interested and who is learning the sky with me. His now retired Dad, who
resides in Antigua worked for NASA on the hydraulic systems for the
satellite dishes around the world.

We are moving to southern Arizona.

Life is good.

Cathy


It seems everything you wrote is designed to bring attention to you and

not
offer any advice. I highly doubt much of what you say is true..IMHO


Wow!!! You could glean all that information from the few words Cathy
posted, you are one special guy. Have you considered donating your brain to
science (if they can find it)?
