Welcome to the Spacepod.

Entering A Second Decade for The Spacepod 12th April 2011: It's 50 years since Yuri Gagarin's historic flight into space and the beginning of the human space age. A message from the Spacepod Commander: "This web site is to provide information for non-scientists who find themselves having to teach some astronomy. It was inspired by work that I have done with Dumfries Astronomy Society in taking Cub and Brownie Packs for their Astronomer and Star Gazer badges. I hope it can be used by Scout, Brownie and Cub leaders and youth groups everywhere." About the Commander.
