The Author

Hi, my name is David Coppard and I live in New Zealand in the South Pacific. A beautiful country with a temperate climate. If you would like to learn more about New Zealand, the link below will let you explore.

My interests include music - classical through to 20th century, with a special love for Baroque music i.e Vivaldi, Teleman and composers of that era. My favorite instrument is the violin.

Another, interest is astronomy - although these days I am perhaps more of an "armchair" astronomer, than a practical observing astronomer. I own a 10 inch f5.6 reflecting telescope on a Dobsonian mount.

This link will take you to Carter Observatory, New Zealand's National Observatory

My main hobby is growing cacti and succulents, with a special interest in Aloes and Lithops.

My main enjoyment however must be science-fiction - Babylon 5 being the best sci-fi that I have come across in many years. Star Trek: The Next Generation, is also a favorite, as well as Star Trek: Voyager, although Voyager seems a little uneven at times. I hope you will explore my Babylon 5 page and email your thoughts to me.
