A New Zodiac Sign
January 29th, 2011 | 
Author: The Minnesota Planetarium Society has announced some shocking news and it is that we may have a new Zodiac sign! For all those followers of the stars, this comes as a real shock. According to the Planetarium, the alignment of the stars has been pushed forward by a month due to the gravitational pull of the moon on the Earth. In the world of astronomy, this news means that you may not have been born under the horoscope sign that you thought you had been. In other words, our signs may be changing and there’s a new introduction of a sign. How could this be so? It is so, because when astrologers say that the sun is in Pisces it really is not!

New Telescopes for Beginners
There are two basic types of telescopes: one in the reflector and the other is the refracting telescope. It is important to know the difference so the you can choose what is correct for your circumstances.
The first telescopes were the refractor type. A man named Lippershey was tinkering with eyeglass lenses and noticed that when he place one lens in front of the another the object resting just beyond the lenses were magnified slightly.
He soon built the first spyglass, the first optical telescope which focused light into the human eye. It also used two lenses. The first lens (the objective lens) collects and refracts (bends) incoming light, focusing it into a tiny image.
The secondary lens, placed directly in front of the first, magnifies the image, making it look larger to the eye.
