The Internet offers a huge flood of information. It's almost impossible to keep an overview of all current websites that have to do with astronomy or related sciences. Our link page contains mostly links to selected websites that will help you to get the information you are looking for. If you miss a link to an interesting website or have found an error on these pages please contact us. Sorry, we cannot check every link frequently. If you are looking for something special we recommend you use one of the web search engines like AltaVista (keyword search), Yahoo (structured search), the AstroWeb or most powerful in Switzerland: BlueWin Search. They all automatically scan the whole web for new pages and will serve you more current than we can do. As long as you are looking for something on our domain you can use our astro!nfo Search.   Enjoy surfing ... and be patient!
