About

   Dear Universe,

     This is David Dickinson, conceiver of AstroGuyz.  I’m originally from Mapleton, Maine, and retired from the U.S Air Force as an Aircraft Armament Systems Specialist.  I have been fasinated by astronomy and science since watching the last Apollo Moonshots in the early 70’s and Star Trek re-runs as a kid.  I’ve owned about half a dozen telescopes, done public out reach, built my own observatory, and operated the 16-scope and the University of Arizonas’ Flandreau Observatory.  I’ve also contributed variable and meteor observing data.  I started this blog in response to the huge interest I see in the general public, as well as some of the mis-conceptions I’ve heard.
