Advice for stirring your online community and fostering engagement

When you enter into any new area of science, you almost always find

yourself with a baffling new language of technical terms to learn before you can converse with the experts. This is certainly true in astronomy both in terms of terms that refer to the cosmos and terms that describe the tools of the trade, the most prevalent being the telescope. So to get us off of first base, let’s define some of the key terms that pertain to telescopes to help you be able to talk to them more intelligently. The first area of specialization in telescopes has to do with the types of telescopes people use. The three designs of telescopes that most people use are the Refractor, the Reflector and the Schmidt Cassegrain telescope. The refractor telescope uses a convex lens to focus the light on the eyepiece. The reflector telescope has a concave lens which means it bends in. It uses mirrors to focus the image that you eventually see. The Schmidt Cassegrain telescope uses an involved system of mirrors to capture the image you want to see. A binocular telescope uses a set of telescopes mounted and synchronized so your view of the sky is 3-D. Beyond the basic types, other terms refer to parts of the telescope or to the science behind how telescopes work. Collimation is a term for how well tuned the telescope is to give you a good clear image of what you are looking at. You want your telescope to have good collimation so you are not getting a false image of the celestial body. Aperture is a fancy word for how big the lens of your telescope is. But it’s an important word because the aperture of the lens is the key to how powerful your telescope is. Magnification has nothing to do with it, its all in the aperture.

My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on a variety of websites
for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform.
I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net. Is there a
way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it? Any kind of
help would be greatly appreciated!

Link exchange is nothing else however it is just placing the other person's website link on your page at suitable place and other person will also do same in support of you.

Good day! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd figured I'd
ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe
guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My blog discusses a lot of the same subjects as
yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you are interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you!

Wonderful blog by the way!

I am really inspired with your writing abilities as well as with the format for your blog.

Is this a paid subject matter or did you modify
it your self? Anyway stay up the nice quality writing, it is uncommon to look a great weblog like this one these days..
