Hello ,

It's often said that on the internet, information is free.

 

And it's pretty much true. Take a look at Wikipedia, for example, and you'll find an endless stream of web pages, words, and images on every subject imaginable, enough information to fill thousands of textbooks.

 

But as Albert Einstein once said, "Information is not knowledge". Knowledge is the use of information. A search for the connection between facts. A step towards a personal understanding.

 

An example... I've spent a lifetime sifting through the facts of astronomy. Decades of reading through shelves of thick textbooks, long nights shivering at the telescope, learning by trial and error, taking wrong turns, right turns, you name it. Years of graduate school.

 

All to transmute information into knowledge... a personal expert-level knowledge of stargazing and astronomy.

 

That's why I created Fundamentals of Stargazing. To share this knowledge with you. At your convenience, and on your terms. To help you know exactly what to do and how to do it so you can see and understand the most beautiful sights in our little part of the universe.

 

Here’s what one recent student of the course said:

 

 

You can learn more about the course at this link. It opens only once a year, and it will close this year on March 10, 2019.

 

It would be an honor to count you among this year’s participants.

 

Clear skies,
