Normally our AGM would take place in May, however the ongoing pandemic prevents it at present.

Our guest speaker this month is Mr. Paul Money FRAS, FBIS, whose lecture is entitled:

“Why Are There No Green Stars?“

This talk explores how we see and perceive colour and why when we view the stars, there appear to be no green stars out there!

The structure of the meeting is expected to be as follows:

18:45 – Room opens
19:00 – Society business
19:15 – Lecture starts
After the lecture will be a Q&A.

 

 

Please note, due to COVID-19 this meeting is ONLINE-ONLY.
Society members have been sent Zoom & YouTube links.A recording is NOT available for this lecture.
