About the Author:

Ron Wodaski wrote his first how-to book in the early 90s, and finally realized he was nuts about astronomy 10 years later. He bought a telescope, started imaging with some of the very first CCD cameras available. When he could not find a reference book on the subject, he wrote his own. Today, Ron is director of the Tzec Maun Foundation, which provides free access to telescopes to students over the internet.
