the magic of google! the words physics and forum!
Lifelong lover of astronomy. I'm a deep sky object observer. I use a 12.5" dob, and love taking it out to a dark site. 300+ Herschel-400 oblects logged, all by starhopping.

Thread 'Just a physics enthusiast'

Hi everyone, I'm just a physics enthusiast. I took some first-year courses a long time ago, but I wasn't able to continue, so I don't have a degree. Still, I'm really passionate about the subject and try to keep up with it as much as I can. I mostly study in my (limited) free time, going through books I didn’t get the chance to read when I was younger. Thanks for your attention!
