Amateur astronomy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search This article or section is missing citations or needs footnotes Using inline citations (December 2007) Amateur astronomers watch the night sky during the Perseid meteor shower Amateur astronomy , a subset of astronomy , is a hobby whose participants enjoy studying and observing celestial objects. Contents Overview Amateur astronomy objectives Common tools Common techniques ... edit Overview The amateur astronomer is one who does not depend on the field of astronomy as a primary source of income or support, and does not have a professional degree or advanced academic training. Many amateurs are beginners, while others have a high degree in astronomy and often assist and work along side professional astronomers. Amateur astronomy is usually associated with viewing the night sky when most celestial objects and events are visible, but sometimes amateur astronomers also operate during the day for events such as sunspots and solar eclipses . Amateur astronomers often look at the sky using nothing more than their eyes, but common tools for amateur astronomy include portable telescopes and binoculars People have studied the sky throughout history in an amateur framework, without any formal method of funding. It is only within about the past century, however, that amateur astronomy has become an activity clearly distinguished from professional astronomy, and other related activities.

Amateur Astronomy The Andromeda Galaxy: The Rodney Dangerfield of the Night Sky The Andromeda Galaxy: The Rodney Dangerfield of the Night Sky Articles in this Topic Discussions in this Topic Sep 28, 2001 The Andromeda Galaxy seems to get little respect from beginning observers.

But show them the Andromeda Galaxy and you receive a polite smile dimly visible in the starshine and then they fold their arms and wait impatiently for you to aim the scope elsewhere. Like Rodney says, just no respect. Well, here are some facts about Andromeda that might cause you to linger a little longer at the eyepiece. If you reside in the northern hemisphere, the Andromeda Galaxy is the only extra-galactic object visible to the naked eye, and that tells you it is either close (on a cosmic scale, anyway) or very bright, or both.
