Austrinus It is the astronomy site of Farid Char.
This space was inaugurated on 11/25/2000 and its name means “austral” or “from the south” in Latin.
This name serves to better identify the origin of its contents, created from the Southern Hemisphere: 23°39' S and 70°25' W (Antofagasta, Chile).
In astronomy, the name is present in the constellation Pisces Austrinus.

Constellations are areas associated with imaginary figures formed in the sky by several stars, which happen to be close to each other and delimit regions in the celestial vault, as if they were "countries" of the Earth. Legend attributes their invention to Chiron, a wise Centaur, teacher of the Greek heroes. Today their importance is not limited to the constellations of the Sun, but rather to the constellations of the Sun.
The phenomena that we see in the sky have always caused admiration and curiosity. Many gave way to astronomical calculations of ancient civilizations, as well as interpreting them in a religious/spiritual framework, where certain events represented an omen or were associated with divine intervention. But given that today these phenomena have a clear…

The following are some notable cases of stellar objects, which can be considered exotic, due to their particular properties, composition and/or origin: Brown dwarf A brown dwarf (also called brown dwarf), are objects that failed to achieve the mass and sufficient temperature to initiate thermonuclear hydrogen fusion reactions, therefore they are usually known...

An exoplanet (also called an extrasolar planet) is one that orbits a star other than the Sun, constituting solar systems other than our own. The first of them was discovered in 1995 by Swiss astronomers Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz, orbiting the star 51 Pegasi, which was named 51 Pegasi b. The…
Telescopes are instruments that allow the observation of objects at great distances, much better than if we observed them with the naked eye. Galileo Galilei used the telescope for the first time in astronomy in 1609. Newton perfected the original refractor-type model, building a reflector in 1671. Much better models later appeared, and although…
Nebulae are enormous formations composed mainly of dust and interstellar gas, which adorn space as a remnant of natural processes in stars, such as a supernova explosion, or the last stages of a star that will become a white dwarf, remaining around it a planetary nebula. Nebulae can be classified...
This is a list of astronomy sites, mostly in Spanish, divided by topic. If you wish to suggest an interesting astronomy site that deserves to be included in this section, you can contact me with the information about the website and a brief description, so I can evaluate its inclusion.

An astronomical tour can perfectly be considered a tool (at the amateur level) to learn more about astronomy and develop your hobby. In order to better understand what this tool consists of, the concept associated with this activity, that is, astrotourism, will be described in detail below. It is worth mentioning that the details cited below are…
