Hans Lipperhey (1570 - 1619)

Demonstrated the first telescope 400 years ago - September, 1608

 

 

I am an adjunct professor of astronomy and physics at Cerritos College. I have degrees in physics and, in addition to being a teacher, I have many years of experience as a research scientist in the aerospace/electronics industry.  My academic interests include instrumentation for astronomical research, spectroscopy, cosmology and the history and philosophy of science.  The classes I am teaching this semester are listed in the index at the left .
 My principal hobby at the moment is photography.  The pictures on this page were taken by me using the same simple equipment that we use in lab classes.  To see some student photographs, click on the Student Work listing in the index to the left.  To see some of my non-astronomical pictures click on the Personal Page section.
