Hi everyone, I'm from Chicago and don't know much about telescopes, but willing to learn. Although, I was always attracted by cosmos.
Hope you'll help me to understand how to read it.

Thx,
Gor

Hi Gor and welcome!

I am setting up my little scope tonight at Horner Park. If it's convenient, you (and anybody else) are welcome to stop by and have a chat and look at whatever crosses our path.

I am also a newbie on this stuff but have learned a lot over the last seven months, much from reading the forums and posing questions of the folks on this site. I've trolled all over the net looking for info and there's not a more friendly place out there than Joe's board. We are very lucky to have resources like this in Chicago, and it's cool that this board makes the knowledge here available for folks all over the world.

Let us know your interests and I sure that people here can help.

Best,
Patrick
