giving the name "Quirk" to a
main belt asteroid he discovered. Details of Asteroid 18376 Quirk (1991 SQ) .
- Another great mate of mine, Steve Massey has experience and
a real passion for
astronomy and the cyber world, with this knowledge, he has started an online astronomy
business... myAstroShop .
Steve personally tests all the gear he supplies, so he can give you first hand knowledge
of how the equipment he sells actually performs.
He is a very affable bloke, so give him a yell (or just send an email).
Steve and I have just finished another book, Deep-Sky
Video Astronomy .
It is part of the Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series
published by Springer . Available from from April 2009.
