missing website?

#1

Post by mcolbert »


for the past week or so I have been trying to log into astronomytechnologytoday.com and there doesn't seem to be any access. From browsing other sites there have been reports of intermittent service for a while now, so just wondering if anyone knows what is going on there? Mods, if this is in the incorrect sub-form, please change.

I just tried it and it failed. BUT then it seems that I was using
https://astronomytechnologytoday.com/
which apparently worked before, but now you have to use:
http://astronomytechnologytoday.com/
I tried that and it worked. So I suggest you do the same thing.
:)
Added: It seems that for now all their links are also messed up. If you choose one, it fails. BUT then you can replace the https by http in any of the links, and it will succeed.

tried both but still no luck. ;(. I don't believe that it's my browser because I haven't changed settings since I last successfully visited. Curious.
