Got your attention didn't I? Okay, maybe not. But if you were expecting someone really smart like from Stanford, or MIT, forget it. I'm not in their league. Heck, I didn't even finish college. I am a man without letters. 'sigh' But what I lack in higher education, I make up for in enthusiasm when it comes to science and astronomy. I have a GEE-WHIZ-BANG attitude about the sciences and have always had the joy of discovery about the world around me and I hope I never get over it!



My name is Charles Thomas Northrop, and I run this web site. I also work at the Highland Road Park Observatory in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which I think is soooooo cool! Please use the pages and information found on this here to learn more about the many wonders of science and astronomy. I will be adding more and more so this site will be changing and growing as time goes by.
