This is the home page of The Astronomer group, TA for short. We produce a magazine for the advanced amateur and our aim is to publish all observations of astronomical interest as soon as possible after they are made.

Icarus

The International Journal of Solar and Solar System Studies. Professional journal.

Chinese Astronomy and Astrophysics

The vigorous growth of astronomical and astrophysical science in China led to an increase in papers on astrophysics which Acta Astronomica Sinica could no longer absorb. Translations of papers from two new journals the Chinese Journal of Space Science and Acta Astrophysica Sinica are added to the translation of Acta Astronomica Sinica to form the new journal Chinese Astronomy and Astrophysics. Chinese Astronomy and Astrophysics brings English translations of notable articles to astronomers and astrophysicists outside China. BEWARE, the audience is professional astronomers.
