I AM
My name is Pierpaolo Ricci. I was born in the '70s in Milan. I currently live in Rovereto (TN), an historic city in Trentino in northern Italy, located in the Vallagarina valley of the Adige River. I graduated with a mechanical engineering degree from Polytechnic University of Milan and am now working in the metalmeccanic industry. I have been passionate about astronomy all my life. I have devoted much of my free time to the study of celestial mechanics and writing numerous software programs for calculating astronomical phenomena of every type. In the 1990s I edited a scientific page in a monthly local magazine, writing articles about astronomy and astronautics. Currently I collaborate with a local Astronomic Association and I manage my astronomical site at http://www.pierpaoloricci.it/index_eng
