Below first are recently released images and news releases, afterwards
are a categorized (somewhat alphabetical) list of astronomy and space
related links.
Check out my Hubble research link towards the bottom. Also look for an
article about the Hubble Amateur program in June's Sky&Tel.
I primarily study solar system objects so many of the links for now
concentrate on that area. If you know of good sites for galaxies, black
holes, etc. email them to me, thanks.

AVOID buying a scope in a department store, those $100-200 scopes arent worth the investment. Binoculars (10x50) are really good to start out with, perfect for comets and they are very portable. And can be found in fine sporting good stores. Pick up Astronomy magazine or Sky&Telescope and look for a scope there, if there is still an interest and need for something more powerful and more expensive. Look also for Vendors/Dealers below.
