Hi All
This website is a journey through through the cosmos. Personally I have
always wanted to know what is out there in the great beyond which is the
Universe.
At the moment I personally know very little about astronomy but this site is
set to change this and lets hope we can all learn together.
There is no pretence that any of the information provided is our own. Sources are Wikipedia and any other places where information is freely
available either in the Public Domain, Creative Commons or GNU. If you use any
the information on these pages please credit the authors as described at the
bottom of each page and hopefully give
http://space.y2u.co.uk a credit for putting all this information together.
If you want to know anything more about space and astronomy please enter any
requests and comments in the feedback forms at the bottom of each page.
The idea is that the site will grow organically and provide us an
experience that is relevant to us all and actually enjoy.
Let the journey begin.
