| 536360 | 2007-03-28 04:43:00 | I can recommend an excellent book as an introduction to astronomy. Explorations, an introduction to astronomy by Thomas T. Arney, pub. Mosby isbn 0-8151-0717-x. It's a University text for Astronomy 107 so look for it on trademe at the end of semester. Happy stargazing. |
