Astronomy

    An interesting topic that for thousands of years "the wise men were considered Astronomers" .  In my discovery, A-C the binary star named The Dog Star, plays more an important role in understanding of the history of "our next closest star cluster" ... than is believed presently in this valued and up-dated material .  The off-beat vocabulary, letter to word, designations are widely varied, an mysteriously ordered.  My Copyright of Androgynous Andromeda Robert Jesus Hatei was received by Apple Computer in 1995' with no credentials toward this personage .  The relation or effect on human behavior is questioned, rather the constant is that this mystical belief has been passed on from generation to generation.  Does anyone else recognize that Astronomy to be that relation to the spiritual or religious mind of human intelligence ?   Are than any other opinions of Alpha -Centauri  ?  AKA Robert Arthur Canright

Decades ago I was an avid amateur astronomer.

I was just looking over my bookshelf and thinking which items could go in the next yard sale, the 3 volume Burnham's Celestial Handbook was one of the first on the list to go!  I haven't used it for decades and it takes up space I could use for hardback collections of my favorite comic books!

I'll keep the more image-oriented Astronomy references because they have pretty pictures, but that set is all charts and tables.  No visual appeal at all.

It's a great hobby, but I just sort of lost the passion for it.

How about gastronomy? 

That's something you can put your teeth into.

Seriously, I like science & star gazing but I'm not crazy about math.  So I was never wild about astronomy.
