Astronomy isn't what is used to be. Astronomy has moved on since I was a kid!
I have always been fascinated by the moon and as a child used to view it through a fairly basis telescope which my parents bought me (unexpectedly) one Christmas. Over the years other interests took over along with the pressures of a family taking up my time. What I hadn't realised what that in the intervening period some great software has come out which if you have an interest in both facts and figures and astronomy, will certainly hold a lot of interest for you. Moon phase predictions software now contains so many items of interest that you may not need your telescope again!
The Moon and astronomy in general has certainly seen a resurgence of interest in the last few years, both in space exploration and among amateur astronomers young and old. Whilst our cities may grow ever larger, the amount of lighting has also increased and many city-dwellers are hard-pushed to see anything but the brightest stars in their neon-glow skies. But the Moon suffers no such indignity. It serenely crosses the sky, ever
visible (providing clouds allow!) regardless of the amount of light pollution.
LunarPhase Pro is an astronomers and moon observer's software toolkit designed to
help you learn about the Moon and make your lunar observing
sessions more productive.

LunarPhase Pro contains a wide range of features such as:
* an interactive Moon Atlas
* a searchable database of over 9,000 near and far-side features
* plays hundreds of astronomy-themed videos and NASA TV
* predicts lunar eclipses and times of first crescent visibility
* calculates libration and animates the moon to show its effects
* All phenomena are calculated for where you live
The software contains a huge range of prediction tools, all
integrated together into one low cost solution. No other moon
astronomy software package matches the range of tools included.
LunarPhase Pro has been described by one reviewer as the "Swiss
Army Knife of Moon software" because it does everything you
need!

Swing Set Backyard
Do it yourself backyard work has always been one of my favorite things about spring. Whether I am adding new swing set accessories to my daughter's playground, working in the garden, building myself a tool shed, or doing some other activity, I love the chance to get out into the nice cool, sunny weather and enjoy myself. After being cooped up all winter, who wouldn't? Nonetheless, this year I had an unusually ambitious activity. We needed a new backyard swing set. Apparently, the swing set backyard had had to put up with one too many winters. It was old and decrepit, and it looked so frail that I didn't really trust it to support my daughter. Although it was my first project of the year, I was looking forward to building new backyard swing sets.
Swingset backyard structures are really pretty easy to build. As long as the chain is attached well, the frame is sturdy, and there are no obstacles nearby, a swing set backyard structure can be set up by barely virtually anyone. This year, however, I wanted to make something special. My daughter has always wanted a tree swings, so I decided to...
