    Hello from a fellow visual observer!

    Hello! My name is Will Young. I'm the president of the Astronomical Society of South East Texas and have been an avid visual observer for most of my life. I started looking up about age 10 and it has been an obsession ever since.

    This was my 3rd TSP and I was lucky enough to be invited up to Jimi's 48" by Larry Mitchell for some AMAZING views. Thanks so much Jimi and Larry! While I was there I met some incredible astronomers as well. Akarsh showed me this forum and I knew I had to join. It's quite awesome to find a place like this with so much expertise. I look forward to sharing my observations and I look forward to reading yours!

    Clear Skies!
