I have enjoyed looking at the sky since my childhood. I cherish the recollection of those many precious moments watching the nightfall that I and my maternal grandfather shared by the door-still of his house , near the field of the big sunflowers, in the surroundings of Grandola. Back then the sky was light-free, because the oil refinery in Sines was still a project on a piece of paper, and the responsible persons for public lightning had not yet discovered the inappropriately wasteful street lamps. I kept the habit to leisurely gaze the sky at nightfall, pleasantly adding up the stars that rush to twinkle over the still blue sky. I love the night sky with all the pleasure I can get from it. To this love I dedicate much of my time and resources.
I'm spectroscopist since the end of 2005, and my best pleasure today is to observe in professional observatories, engaged in ProAm projects. A cuban cigar tastes better above 2500m :-)
