I enjoy amateur astronomy, particularly observing and estimating the brightness of variable stars. I'm a member of and webmaster for the Columbus Astronomical Society which meets at Perkins Observatory in Delaware, OH. I own telescopes made by Astro-Physics, Mag1 Instruments, and Tele Vue Optics and binoculars made by Canon and Celestron.
As I mentioned above, my primary interest in astronomy is variable stars.
