Nevyn here, I'm new to this forum and only recently have I been expanding my knowledge of astronomy even though I've been fascinated with the night sky as long as I can remember. I currently don't have any equipment beyond my two eyes. I have had cheap department store telescopes that did more to frustrate me than help on more than one occasion purchased by well-meaning (but grossly undeducated) family members.
Right now I let NASA do my stargazing for me and I regularly visit several websites devoted to posting pictures and information (universe today, etc.) So I guess I'm something of a web astronomer, if such creature exists.

A hearty welcome to the forum!.

Even cheap telescopes from department scopes can expand vistas if coaxed properly. I spent over a decade with a simple 60mm refractor from Wards, and it showed me plenty.

I shall consider "Web Astronomer" as your claim to a new terminology and give it the Chicago Astronomer copy write: ©.

Hope to see your posts on the myriad of topics we have going on.
