I’m a lifelong amateur astronomer and “Public Outreach Educator” living in the beautiful Lake District in Cumbria, England. I am the author of 10 children’s astronomy and spaceflight books, have written for many magazines, newspapers and websites, and also run my town’s astronomical society, the “Eddington Astronomical Society”.

If you’d like to find out more about my writing, my astronomy “Outreach” work or my activities as an amateur astronomer, just have a browse around this site.

I write several blogs on the internet, but my main one is CUMBRIAN SKY, which is where you’llfind lots of information about what’s happening in the night sky, space missions and much more. If you’re here at my homepage because you’ve been to one of my talks and took home an information slip because you wanted to know more, then CUMBRIAN SKY is where you should go. That’s where you’ll find a special page with links to the websites I referred to during my talk. (If you just want the links but don’t really want to read my blog well, fair enough, here’s where you can find the links… LINKS  but really, you should go take a look at my blog, there’s some good stuff on there! )

But if you can’t find what you’re looking for then feel free to drop me a line at STUARTATK@aol.com.

Thanks for dropping by!
