Welcome!
… so, what is different with Astronomy Source?
Astronomy Source is a non-profit astronomy site for informational and educational purpose only. We set particular value on quality information on themes related to astronomy and space technology, presented in a way that allows everyone to understand and enjoy it. Consider Astronomy Source your first step towards a very exciting hobby. Key topics of this web site are: Deep Space & Stars (Cosmos), Solar System, Telescopes & Equipment, Observing, Imaging, Science & Space Technology, and of course astronomy basics, Astro 101. We will add a public astrophoto gallery and a list of astronomy clubs in the next future.
The Astronomy Source team works hard to keep our site fresh with frequent new articles and posts. You will also find many RSS links that provide a stream of up to date information on astronomy, science and space technology. Our goal is to share and spread our excitement for astronomy and science. Astronomy Source is for everyone, young and old, beginners and seasoned amateur astronomers.
Special attention is given to people who are just starting this exciting and very rewarding hobby. Many do not have thousands of dollars available for purchasing equipment, but really, astronomy can be great fun even without spending a lot money. Plenty of good material and information is available for free and Astronomy Source helps you to get access to it.

We and our contributors invest a significant amount of time to make this happen for you. All work is done on a voluntary base. The ads simply help to cover some of the emerging costs for running this site. Besides donations, ads are the only means of helping to fund this undertaking.
