Astronomy downloads.

I see that my education graphical solar system images and information, has been downloaded over 100,000 times. I am sure there are other explanations you would like to illustrate the wonders of the solar system and galaxy. Please let me know if you would like additional graphical information for your class. Also let me know any areas that you would like to change.

After a 3 month break due to medical issues back to astronomy work!!

I am pleased I met with such a friendly and mutually supportive group of fellow patients: John, Kelly, Martin …… Helped on the dark days!

I have to say, all the staff in the linear accelerator team at QA hospital were great and kept our spirits up.

Calm message to you all from Selsey

I will need to give the telescope a once over and clean. Then back to my stars!!

Aurora over South of England

Amazing aurora over Selsey Observatory midnight on 10th May 2024. We are nearly at the peak of a sunspot cycle so watch out for more events.

Lecture to Chichester AS (South Downs) lots of questions.

The lecture on technical challenges of measurement in astronomy went well and loads of interesting questions. All started from the slow (15years) of looking for exoplanets round V470 Cam. Easily visible reduction in the errors over the time I have been making measurements. Some of the error reduction techniques I have used.

New Lecture on ‘Time’ went well.

Delivered to a great audience at the Farnborough Site (Cody AS). Mix of history, science, technical information and current research. Need to put it on Astrospeakers.org
