2009: The Astronomical Odyssey

Amongst the amateur and professional astronomical community things are starting to hot up in preparation for a fantastic year of astronomy starting in January. As Rob points out, there is now a stunning trailer available in a variety of formats all the way from YouTube quality up to HD (about 86 MB). There are some great visuals and it includes extracts of an excellent animation zooming out from the VLT to the HST that Lars Lindberg Christensen showed at a public talk at NAM the other week.

Comments: 2009: The Astronomical Odyssey

Hello Professional and Amateur Astronomers out there,

I am a microbiologist who also happens to love astronomy. As a microbiologist going green I have been promoting the use of bioluminescence for a greener world. I posted a video in youtube highlighting this advocacy which may also have some applications for space travel someday. Just search: Biolumin in youtube to view this video. Thanks for your time and for allowing me to post this message. A Fruitful 2009 Year of Astronomy to everyone!
