Stargazer?

its-logos-plus-logic @flowerchilde (12529) • United States 16 Jan 12

Do you stargaze? I bought myself a telescope and I often stargaze, but even when I didn't have a telescope I used to stargaze. Couple of days ago I was stargazing intensively because of the meteor shower (Perseids). Has anyone...

What you thought you wanted to be.

Kythe42 @Kythe42 (1412) • United States 15 Apr 07

When you were a kid, was there something that you really wanted to be when you grew up, but changed your mind as you got older? I love astronomy and stargazing. When I was in elementary school, I wanted to do something in that...
