Finally, here are two good general astronomy links:
The Astronomical Society of the Pacific - This site includes some great educational resources, as well as a great links page.
The SETI Institute - The mission of the SETI Institute is to explore, understand and explain the origin, nature and prevalence of life in the universe. You can be part of the search for life in the universe by adding the SETI@home screensaver to your computer.

Please let Glenn Simonelli know of any outdated links. Also, send me your favorite astronomy links and I'll include them on this page. Thanks!
