Find in this ring sites related to all aspects of radio astronomy, including but not limited to sites of value to amateur radio astronomers, and home- and school- based radio observatories, solar flare detection, Jupiter noise storm monitoring, meteor detection by radio, and much more. Pictured: a radio image (by the Very Large Array, or VLA) of Messier 87 (M87), a giant elliptical galaxy in the Virgo Cluster, and an image of its center section by a Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) consisting of antennae in Finland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden and the United States. The jet of particles might be powered by a black hole in the center of the galaxy.
If you're looking to get into radio astronomy and you've looked at other backyard radio astronomy sites on the Net, coming to the conclusion that all you need is a "spare 3m satellite dish and $20,000 of surplus electronics", then this site is for you! You can do some serious radio astronomy without a dish!
If you're seeing this site in one of my rings, consider it an unofficial manager's page); otherwise it's my page about which rings I manage AND about WebRing in general, including WebRing membership and management. If THIS ring isn't on the page, it's due to be merged; check join instructions to see where.
We are amateur astronomers interest in both optical and radio astronomy observations. Follow our progress as we explore the universe with our many projects.
Cosmos, the Ultimate Frontier. A website about astronomy, space exploration and colonization as well as science-fiction. There is also a forum, store, search engine and much more!
Learn Einstein Special and General Relativity mathematics cosmology physics history and philosophy using Macintosh (Mac) Relativity Calculator software.
Radio astronomy techniques are developed to study the sun, the solar wind, and the ionosphere. The site addresses other topics in astronomy including research and writings of a physicist and my rediscovery of history and literature through astronomy.
