Telescopes

I've been interested in amateur observing for over 15 years now. My first scope, which I still own, was a 4.25" Edmund Astroscan. I got it as a Christmas present in 1985, while I was still in high school, and just in time for viewing Halley's Comet.

The Astronomy Nexus came about after I'd developed several astronomically oriented Web sites. Back in the early days of the Web, around 1995, I saw the usefulness of taking existing, popular documents, such as some FAQs I wrote for sci.astro.amateur some years ago, and using the Web's ability to connect related information to improve the documents.
