Re: [APML] Astronomical Databases

["Michael Stecker" <mstecker@dslextreme.com>]

The websites I like the best for learning about an astronomical object and 
imagers are:

For great descriptions of objects for the amateur, search:
http://www.seds.org/

For professional/amateur literature search:
Astronomical Data Service (ADS):
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html

For the "Gold Standard" color pictorial representation of an object:
http://www.robgendlerastropics.com/

For world-wide list of astroimagers:
