# Statement from the Founder
Mindniche was originally meant to be a study tool. To flesh out everything possible that was learned, to make sure that each of the definitions on hand were as accurate as possible. I'm not a particularly efficient learner, so any sort of tool that worked to expedite my studies was a godsend.
It's to note that space pedagogy has always been our city's weak spot. As an astronomy kid growing up in one of the busiest cities in the world, it was always difficult finding others that were like-minded. When the nearest dark spot is nearly an hour away, it can be understood why many don't want to take the time just to look at some pinpricks of light. Our Space Museum, two empty, bleached bulbs, haemorrhages nearly 50% of its budget to operational costs alone. Space outreach has long been weak in districts with low funding.
As a result, Mindniche was born - to fill the void of expensive, inflexible astronomy pedagohgy and to provide free, unrestricted access to help with some of the most technically demanding subjects on our planet.
# Common Problems and Questions

This is an [Obsidian Publish]() site. As a result, it is framed with the structure of a documentation website. This, however, does not permit sideways images, which means every article is written from a top-down perspective.
**Q: I can't find my hobby. Can I get it on the website?**
A: Sure! We're open to all sorts of hobbies provided *you yourself can convince us to take it up*. If you can do this, consider your hobby added!
**Q: Is this site limited to physics?**
A: Of course not! Its main purpose is to branch out from physics, giving others the chance to talk about their hobby.

Hi, I'm Julien, and I'm making up for lost time by doing way too much physics! Thanks for visiting the website, it helps support me!
Inspired by 3Blue1Brown and Khan Academy. Interface was a bit of a personal WebDev project - I hope it isn't too clunky. Can't type neatly.

Hi everyone! I am Joshua, a Year 12 Student grinding away at the horrible IB diploma. I have developed a passion for medicine throughout my binging of shows like House and Doctor X, and would like to share what I've learnt with all of you. Hope you find this slightly useful and interesting!

To the person reading this - it’s a great pleasure having you know something about me! My name is Maxwell and I have an undying obsession with atmospheric science, maths, and geography, having recently also acquired a liking for politics. That isn’t enough to properly describe the person I am, but I typically like to spend my time tracking weather systems, learning or teaching mathematical concepts, browsing various online newspaper articles or watching documentaries covering fascinating world affairs.
