I have lowered the volume of the music on the site as not to shock any more people. Sorry to those of you who were alarmed by this, particularly those in work.

I have a question. I can't get the site to load in Mozilla Firefox.It gives me an alert that reads "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded? I tried Netscape and it works.

Any help?

Better get someone to proofread it, though. Three spelling errors in the first couple of paragraphs.

The three obvious ones I mentioned are still there, but if you are comfortable with them I'll leave you to it. I just figured you'd be glad to get the chance to fix them before too many other people see them and get the wrong idea about the site.

If I load the link that has the /farstar.swf at the end it loads fine. If I click the other link I still get the alert but the page will load.

Strange.

Good news site now complete, it may not be of any use to those that have been interested in astronomy for a while, but i hope it does clear up some issues that people new to astronomy may have.
