Tom's Astronomy Page!
Tom Bruce was my astronomy professor while I was attending classes at UNM Taos and probably my favorite professor to date! Not only did he inspire me and entertain us all, he provided a clear and comprehensive basis for a solid understanding of celestial mechanics and the scientific method. This link is to his astronomy page, the most extensive collection of astronomy information I have seen on the World Wide Web.
