Curious about Astronomy? ASK AN ASTRONOMER

The generous graduate students at Cornell University volunteer a considerable amount of time to answer submitted questions. They are NOT going to do your homework for you, or look up answers you can easily look up somewhere else. There is a lot of information on this site. Look at questions that have already been answered so you don't ask a question that has an answer posted. But, if you really get stuck, or there is something that puzzles you or that you wonder about you can send them a question. You'll usually get an answer within a few days, but tougher questions can take up to a few weeks to answer. The graduate students at Curious are volunteers, and their own homework and research takes up a lot of time!
