Welcome to thenewRadiant

Welcome to thenewRadiant!

-  a community of amateur astronomers from all over the world

We share ideas, astronomy news and observation stories, exchange hints and tips with other enthusiasts and generally keep in touch with one another and the world of amateur astronomy.

We come from both the Northern and Southern hemispheres and we range from very experienced practical observers to those who are beginning to explore the world of amateur astronomy.   Come and join in our observing projects to learn together and meet new friends in the process. Or talk about any other relevant topic in our discussion forums. Young astronomers and "astro kids" are welcome.  Members and guests also have access to our extensive links section.

 This site is dedicated to the memory of my mom, who gave me life - and the stars.
