    Πύλες του...Άδη...

    Wow! Very nice. With the orange glow, I am expecting the alien mother ship to appear at any moment. Yes, I have seen to many sci-fi movies in my day. Fred
  7. Hi Antonios, I am certain that after fifteen years and coming to grips with the concept of shutting the site down was a decision not lightly reached. But look on the bright side of things. It was a lot of work and a lot of fun. I am certain that the presence of your site and what it offered, planted many little seeds in the field of astronomy and that those little seeds are sprouting and growing bigger day by day. We all have something to contribute as you most certainly have with your site. My hat is off to you for a job WELL DONE. Fred

  23. It is always sad to hear of such news. I do not believe that I ever met George Makris, but, perhaps I was lucky to have met him once at a meeting or star party. I do hope that he is sailing silently and majestically among the stars, viewing all of the wonders that are out there, in all their glory, that He created. Fred
