Planetary and DSO Observation Treatises recovered from astronomyforum.net

#1

Post by skaven »


I recovered my old Planetary and DSO Observation Treatises from astronomyforum.net and converted them to markdown, so they are no longer behind a forum login, and also so I can make changes over time. You can find the articles here: https://github.com/skaven81/astronomy-treatises

If you find dead links or have suggestions for corrections, please feel free to open a pull request or issue in Github.
