A Backyard Astronomer's Diary With Jim Harstad
Jim Harstad
I'm Jim Harstad, amateur astronomer. I'm not a scientist, but I am a science enthusiast. I like to go out to the backyard in the evening with my small telescope and see what's up in the night sky. I got interested in astronomy as a kid, learning the night sky and exploring with a telescope from my suburban backyard. That's something I still enjoy. And that's what this podcast is all about. Sharing the experience of backyard astronomy. Bring your binoculars or your small telescope and join me.
