What is Zoozve?

Post by KingClinton »

I would not have given this a second thought. Probably would have put it down to a kids poster with fanciful drawings.
Now I know something new!

Eyeballs, binoculars, sketch box, Scopes n stuff.
Some people don't understand why I love astronomy so much, I cannot understand why they do not!

Yeah, saw that. It's quite interesting.

One of the things that really got me into astronomy proper was listening to an early Universe Today podcast (they were web page sound bites back then!) about the Kuiper Belt and with it the realisation that the solar system was a lot more interesting than just eight planets orbiting the Sun.

This is another example. (with an amusing twist!)

It's amazing that astronomers know more about galaxies many hundreds of light years away but so little about our own backyard.

To adapt a phrase from a UK tv comedy programme
Galaxies are big and far away, but most things in our solar system are small - but also far away.
