SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Friday\, 16th March\, 2018
DESCRIPTION:The March 2018 monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for the 2017 – 2018 (136th) session will be held on Friday\, March 16th from 19:00 to 21:30. \n\nOur guest speaker for this Friday’s monthly meeting has changed. My apologies for the short notice however ill health has befallen Dr. Katherine Joy and unfortunately she won’t be able to attend. In her place\, Mr. Russell Parry has generously agreed to fill the spot and will be speaking for us about the Appley Bridge meteorite.\nI know many of you were looking forward to Dr. Joy’s lecture and may be disappointed\, however I hope that you will enjoy Mr. Parry’s lecture. I will endeavour to rebook Dr. Joy for a future date. \n“The Appley Bridge Meteorite”\nOne late Tuesday evening in mid-October 1914\, residents of Appley Bridge – a village to the north-west of Wigan – were surprised to see a streak of light tearing through the sky\, followed by a series of loud explosions. The Great War had recently begun\, and if people thought they were under attack\, it is understandable. This\, however\, was no man-made incendiary device – its origin was much further away than Germany.\nRussell Parry will tell the tale of the Appley Bridge Meteorite for us this coming Friday. \n  \nOur guest speaker this month is Dr. Katherine Joy of the University of Manchester\, whose lecture is entitled: \n“Space rocks on ice: Hunting for meteorites in Antarctica”\nMeteorites shed light on the origin of the Solar System and on the geological history of different planetary bodies. Antarctica is unique collection ground for meteorites – it very cold so preserves them well\, the black meteorites are easy to spot against the white ice\, and meteorites samples are often concentrated together on the ice along the Transantarctic mountain range. I will outline my experience in travelling to collect meteorites with the US Antarctic Search for Meteorites Programme\, and talk about the scientific reasons we go and collect these stones from space. \nKatherine Joy obtained her PhD in studies of lunar evolution from University College London in 2007\, where she combined data from the European Space Agency’s SMART-1 mission and studies of lunar meteorites. She then held a postdoctoral research position at Birkbeck College where she studied data from the X-ray instrument on the Indian Chandrayaan-1 mission. In 2010 Katherine took up a postdoctoral research post in Houston\, Texas where she was based at the Lunar and Planetary Institute and NASA Johnson Space Centre as a NLSI postdoctoral research fellow. She studied samples returned by the Apollo 16 mission in order to study the Moon’s impact record. In 2012 Katherine returned to the UK to work at the University of Manchester where she investigates the bombardment history of the Moon and inner Solar System. She has twice joined the US Antarctic Search for Meteorites (ANSMET) programme\, spending two field season’s on the ice collecting meteorites \n\nSubscriptions for 2016-2017 are now overdue and should have been paid by October 1st.\n Please contact the Treasurer if you wish to become a member or update your subscription.\n \nAdult Annual Subscription is  £15.00\nJunior Members Subscription (10 to 17yrs)  is £5.00 \nThe LAS e-newsletter is now included in your normal subscription cost \n\nFree tea/coffee with light refreshments break will form part of the evening at about 8pm. \nPlease note – Doors will only open after 6.30pm and not before. \n\nI do hope you can join me and your fellow members\, but if you are unable to attend\, please indicate your apologies to me by filling out this form. \nWith best wishes – Ken

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Friday\, 16th February\, 2018
DESCRIPTION:The February 2018 monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for the 2017 – 2018 (136th) session will be held on Friday\, February 16th from 19:00 to 21:30. \n\nOur guest speaker this month is Prof. Ian Robson (BSc\, Phd\, FRAS\, CPhys\, FInstP) whose lecture is entitled: \n“The Discovery of Quasars”\nQuasars are the most powerful bodies in the Universe and we now know that they are the extreme of Active Galaxies\, powered by a supermassive black hole at their centre. However\, the story of their discovery is one of missed opportunities\, the advent of radio astronomy\, careful observational measurements\, and a fierce fight between two groups of astronomers before the truth was finally accepted. This talk describes the ins and outs of this story\, the personalities involved and gives an insight into how quasars are powered and the fact that supermassive black holes are almost ubiquitous in the Universe. \n\nPlease note\, the lecture which was formerly booked for this date was cancelled due to the unexpected death of Dr. Glyn Marsh. The LAS sends its condolences to Dr. Marsh’s family. \nOur guest speaker this month is Dr. Glyn Marsh whose lecture is entitled: \n“Sir Robert Ludwig Mond and the Mond Photographic Equatorial – a local astronomy connection”\nRobert Ludwig Mond was born at “The Hollies”\, now No. 23 Derby Road\, Farnworth on the 9th September 1867 – only a few miles from the LAS observatory at Pex Hill\, Cronton. \nHe was the eldest son of Ludwig and Frida Mond (originally from Cassel\, Germany). Ludwig Mond\, an industrial chemist\, had moved to England in 1862 to license a process he had invented for the recovery of sulphur from wastes produced during the manufacture of alkali. The Widnes area had\, at that time\, the largest concentration of alkali works in the country and waste products were becoming a significant environmental problem. \nLater\, Ludwig Mond\, along with John Brunner would go on to become a major alkali manufacturer at Winnington\, Cheshire\, using a new\, more efficient and benign process and became very wealthy. Brunner\, Mond and Company eventually formed a major part of the giant Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI). Robert himself also became a distinguished scientist\, a scholar of ancient Egypt and an industrial chemist of some repute. In addition\, he used his family’s wealth and connections for good causes and was very much a philanthropist. \nAstronomy was one area of science that interested him greatly and in conjunction with Dr William J.S.Lockyer\, son of the famous Sir Norman Lockyer\, helped maintain the “Hill Observatory” at Sidmouth\, Devon that had been established by Norman Lockyer in 1912. In 1932\, Robert\, now Sir Robert Mond\, presented a unique astrographic instrument made by Cooke\, Troughton & Simms to the Norman Lockyer Observatory and provided further funding for a professional observer to undertake research. The talk will describe and illustrate the many special features of this telescope and provide examples of its photographic observations from 1932 up until 1997 when film photography gave way to digital imaging. An on-going restoration and historical research project will also provide interesting insights into its heritage and possible future. \n\nSubscriptions for 2016-2017 are now overdue and should have been paid by October 1st.\n Please contact the Treasurer if you wish to become a member or update your subscription.\n \nAdult Annual Subscription is  £15.00\nJunior Members Subscription (10 to 17yrs)  is £5.00 \nThe LAS e-newsletter is now included in your normal subscription cost \n\nFree tea/coffee with light refreshments break will form part of the evening at about 8pm. \nPlease note – Doors will only open after 6.30pm and not before. \n\nI do hope you can join me and your fellow members\, but if you are unable to attend\, please indicate your apologies to me by filling out this form. \nWith best wishes – Ken

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Friday 17th March\, 2017
DESCRIPTION:The March 2017 monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for session 2016-17\, will take place on Friday\, March 17th 2017 from 7pm.\n \n\nOur guest speaker this month is Dr. Rene Breton of the University of Manchester\, with a lecture entitled: \n“Einstein’s Relativity: Tested to the Limit with Pulsars”\nDr. Breton writes: \nEinstein’s Theory of General Relativity was published in 1915. In over a century it has not failed a single time despite hundreds of tests and experiments. One of the most extreme environments in which to benchmark Relativity and possible alternative theories of gravity is around pulsars (after black holes\, the densest objects in the Universe). In this talk\, I will discuss the formidable achievements of the last 40 years in using pulsars to test Einstein’s theory and describe some of the strange behaviours of space and time when submitted to extreme gravity. I will also highlight future prospects of detecting gravitational waves with pulsars. \n\nSubscriptions for 2016-2017 are now overdue and should have been paid by October 1st. \nAdult Annual Subscription is  £15.00\nJunior Members Subscription (10 to 17yrs)  is £5.00\nPlease contact the Treasurer if you wish to become a member. \nThe LAS e-newsletter is now included in your normal subscription cost \n\nFree tea/coffee with light refreshments break will form part of the evening at about 8pm. \nPlease note – Doors will only open after 6.30pm\n \n\nI do hope you can join me and your fellow members\, but if you are unable to attend\, please indicate your apologies by filling out this form. \nWith best wishes – Ken

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting\, Friday 20th March 2015
DESCRIPTION:The March 2015 monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for session 2014-15\, will take place on Friday\, March 20th 2015 from 7pm.\n \n\nOur guest speaker this month is Mr. Robin Leadbeater from the British Astronomical Association\, whose lecture is entitled \n“Science from Starlight”\n\nIf your 2014-2015 subscriptions have not yet been paid\, your membership has lapsed.\nIf you wish to continue your membership\, please contact the Treasurer\, Chris Banks\, ASAP.\n \nAdult Annual Subscription is  £15.00\nJunior Members Subscription (10 to 17yrs)  is £5.00 \nThe LAS e-newsletter is now included in your normal subscription cost \n\nFree tea/coffee with light refreshments break will form part of the evening at about 8pm. \nPlease note – Doors will only open after 6pm and not before. \n\n  \nRoadworks on Hanover Street\nLAS Treasurer\, Chris Banks notes:\nPlease be aware that there are some major road works taking place near to the QMH. Essentially\, Hanover Street is completely closed to traffic for the next 6 or 7 weeks (so the April meeting will also be affected). Members attending the next two meetings may well have to find alternative routes into the city. The car park above Tesco’s can still be reached\, but traffic has to approach from the Albert Dock end of Hanover Street and then turn right into Gradwell Street. Or\, if you know the way\, come down Gradwell Street itself. \nThe plan is to finish the first phase of road works by the end of April.\nThere will then be a 3 or 4 week break before moving to the south end of Hanover Street by June. Hopefully the AGM in May will not be affected. \n\n  \nI do hope you can join me and your fellow members next Friday evening\, but if you are unable to attend\, please indicate your apologies to me by filling out this form. \nRemember too that the deep partial solar eclipse also takes place on the same morning – we will be at Pex Hill from 08:30 to 11:00 so let’s hope the weather is kind.\nWith best wishes – Gerard
