ScholarX: Extended MAA Scholar Pages

The original Scholar project was created by Chris Kronberg and installed at her Munich Astro Archive.

Following Chris' philosophy, this service is to provide astronomical teaching texts suited for both laymen and, especially for reference, professionals.

Some time ago Chris and me agreed that I would provide some texts for this service, but then, appearently, she was so busily bound to other activities that she has never found time to include them in her archive. Therefore, I created an index including both links to Chris' original pages and the new extra pages. Now with the MAA gone, some of her pages will be archived here, and for others some source pages will be linked.
