    Default hello



    My name is Joe. I have had an interest in astronomy ever since I young (even before I was even in kindergarten) and I read everything that I possibly could have about it since than, and am still left with wanting to know more. I love pretty much everything about astronomy including but not limited to stargazing, the solar system, stars, nebula, galaxies, extraterrestrial life, galaxies, cosmology, and much more.

    I graduated from high school in May and getting ready to start college. I want to earn undergraduate degrees in math and physics then go on to earn a PhD in astronomy. When I am done with school I hope to become an Astronomer
