Cliff\, then the Chief of the United States Forest Service\, who convinced Stuart Roosa\, the Command Module Pilot on the Apollo 14 mission\, to bring a small canister containing about 500 seeds aboard the module in 1971. Seeds for the experiment were chosen from five species of tree: loblolly pine\, sycamore\, sweetgum\, redwood\, and Douglas fir.[2][3] In 2022\, NASA announced it would be reviving the Moon tree program by carrying 1\,000 seeds aboard Artemis I.[4] \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \nQ-Park Car Parking Discount\n \nFor those of you travelling into the city centre by car\, don’t forget that you can get 20% off parking at Q-Park Hanover Street by using the promo-code QUAKERSLV when pre-booking through the website Q-Park \n \n\n \n\n\nLivestream & Recording Information\n \nThis meeting will be held at our normal venue of the Quaker Meeting House\, and may be live-streamed via YouTube\, if I get the equipment set up in time 😊 \n \n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\nA recording may be available. \n\n\n\n\n \nSubscription Info \n \nIf you have not yet become a Member of the Society and wish to join\, please see our Membership of the Liverpool Astronomical Society page before sending any payment. \n\nNote: Membership Fees are correct as of October 2025 \n\n\n\n\nMembership Type\nPrice\n\n\n\n\nAdults (18 & above) Annual Subscription\n£25.00\n\n\nJuniors (14-17 inclusive) Annual Subscription\n£5.00\n\n\n\n\nPlease note:Subscriptions are due from 1st October each year and must be paid by January 31st or your membership may be suspended.If not paid by 31st March your membership will cease. \nPaying your Subscription Electronically (e.g. via e-banking)\nYou can now pay for your subscription via Internet banking.  \n\n\n\n\nName:\nLiverpool Astronomical Society\n\n\nSort Code:\n60-19-24\n\n\nAccount No.:\n28521250\n\n\nPayment Ref.:\nUse your full name (or as much of it as possible\, remove spaces if needed) as the reference\, so that our Treasurer can connect your payment to the correct account in the books.\n\n\n\n\nPlease contact the Treasurer if you require more information. \n \n\n \n \nMore information about membership can be found here. \n \nThe LAS e-newsletter is now included in your normal subscription cost. \n \n\n \nFree tea/coffee with light refreshments break will form part of the evening at about 8pm. \n \nPlease note – Doors will only open after 18:30 and not before. \n \n\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. \n \nWith best wishes – Mark

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Dr. Graham Beamson\, FRSC - "Backyard Spectroscopy"
DESCRIPTION:Members of the public are welcome to attend (for free)\, but please consider joining our Society if you attend more than two monthly meetings. \nThe March 2025 monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for the 2024-2025 session will be held on Friday\, March 21st from 19:00 to 21:00. \nAbout This Meeting\nOur guest speaker for March 2025 is Dr. Graham Beamson\, FRSC. \nGraham did his first degree in chemistry at the University of Oxford and stayed on to do a DPhil in ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. He then worked at the University of Durham in infrared and Raman and in x-ray absorption spectroscopy\, and at ICI and Daresbury Laboratory in x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. He has over 100 publications to his name\, and is now retired and lives in Cheshire. As a retirement project he did an Open University degree in geology and astronomy. He has a rolling roof observatory with several telescopes and spectrographs. \nThe title of Graham’s talk will be: \n\nBackyard Spectroscopy \n\n“It is over 200 years since Fraunhofer developed his spectroscope\, and since then spectroscopy has grown to be of fundamental importance in astronomy. This talk will describe some of my own activities in amateur astronomical spectroscopy\, in particular using a Sol’Ex – Star’Ex spectrograph. In Sol’Ex configuration this functions as a spectroheliograph\, recording images of the Sun at a defined wavelength. In Star’Ex mode it functions as a high resolution spectrograph for night-time observations. Examples will be shown of solar images and spectra of stars.” \n\nQ-Park Car Parking Discount\nFor those of you travelling into the city centre by car\, don’t forget that you can get 20% off parking at Q-Park Hanover Street by using the promo-code QUAKERSLV when pre-booking through the website Q-Park

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Dr. Dimitris Stamatellos - "New Worlds in our Galaxy"
DESCRIPTION:Members of the public are welcome to attend (for free)\, but please consider joining our Society if you attend more than two monthly meetings. \nThe April 2024 monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for the 2023-2024 session will be held on Friday\, April 19th from 19:00 to 21:00. \n\nOur guest speaker this month is Dr. Dimitris Stamatellos\, PhD\, Reader in Astrophysics (Associate Professor) of the University of Central Lancashire where he leads the Theoretical star formation and Exoplanets Group. His website can be found at https://dstamatellos.wordpress.com/ \nThe title of the lecture (previously listed as “Exoplanets”) is: \n\nNew Worlds in our Galaxy \n\nThe question about the origin of planets and life has fascinated humankind since ancient times. Thousands of exoplanets\, i.e. planets around other stars\, have been discovered . To our surprise these exoplanets have properties that are very different from those of the planets of our Solar System\, thus challenging our understanding of how planets form. Recent observations suggest that planets and planetary systems may form much faster than it has been previously thought. I will discuss the methods for discovering exoplanets and present models of planet formation in protostellar discs around young stars. \n\n\n\nCOVID-19 Information & Safety Procedures\nPlease try to continue with social distancing and use caution when possible. \nAlso\, use the hand sanitiser that will be available. \nThe wearing of masks will be a personal choice and optional for those that wish to continue wearing them. \nWe will continue to ventilate the room. \nFinally\, please do not attend if you have any COVID-like symptoms or have tested positive for COVID that day\, or in the days leading up to the meeting. \n\n\n\n\nLivestream & Recording Information\nThis meeting will be held at our normal venue of the Quaker Meeting House\, and may be live-streamed via YouTube\, if I get the equipment set up in time 😊 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA recording may be available. \n\n\n\n\nSubscription Info \nIf you have not yet become a Member of the Society and wish to join\, please see our Membership of the Liverpool Astronomical Society page before sending any payment. \n\nNote: Membership Fees are correct as of October 2025 \n\n\n\n\nMembership Type\nPrice\n\n\n\n\nAdults (18 & above) Annual Subscription\n£25.00\n\n\nJuniors (14-17 inclusive) Annual Subscription\n£5.00\n\n\n\n\nPlease note:Subscriptions are due from 1st October each year and must be paid by January 31st or your membership may be suspended.If not paid by 31st March your membership will cease. \nPaying your Subscription Electronically (e.g. via e-banking)\nYou can now pay for your subscription via Internet banking.  \n\n\n\n\nName:\nLiverpool Astronomical Society\n\n\nSort Code:\n60-19-24\n\n\nAccount No.:\n28521250\n\n\nPayment Ref.:\nUse your full name (or as much of it as possible\, remove spaces if needed) as the reference\, so that our Treasurer can connect your payment to the correct account in the books.\n\n\n\n\nPlease contact the Treasurer if you require more information. \n \n \nMore information about membership can be found here. \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 18:30 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 – Mark

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Professor Andy Newsam - "A Universe for All"
DESCRIPTION:Members of the public are welcome to attend (for free)\, but please consider joining our Society if you attend more than two monthly meetings. \nThe March 2024 monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for the 2023-2024 session will be held on Friday\, March 22nd from 19:00 to 21:00. \nPlease note: This is the FOURTH Friday of the month\, not the third. \n\nOur guest speaker this month is Professor Andy Newsam\, Professor of Astronomy Education and Engagement at Astrophysics Research Institute\, Liverpool John Moores University\, and Director of the National Schools’ Observatory. \nThe title of the lecture is: \n\nA Universe for All \n\nAstronomy creates a sense of excitement and wonder. Liverpool John Moores University’s Schools’ Observatory (www.schoolsobservatory.org) taps into that interest to explore science\, mathematics\, engineering and technology. The Observatory was originally set up to provide a way for UK and Irish school students to take their own observations with the world’s largest fully-robotic telescope – the Liverpool Telescope in the Canary Islands – and for more than a decade it has been doing exactly that with many thousands of observations taken for students of all ages. However\, it has also grown to have a much wider mission to help prepare future generations for the exciting but challenging technological world that lies ahead of them. \n\n\n\nCOVID-19 Information & Safety Procedures\nPlease try to continue with social distancing and use caution when possible. \nAlso\, use the hand sanitiser that will be available. \nThe wearing of masks will be a personal choice and optional for those that wish to continue wearing them. \nWe will continue to ventilate the room. \nFinally\, please do not attend if you have any COVID-like symptoms or have tested positive for COVID that day\, or in the days leading up to the meeting. \n\n\n\n\nLivestream & Recording Information\nThis meeting will be held at our normal venue of the Quaker Meeting House\, and may be live-streamed via YouTube\, if I get the equipment set up in time 😊 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA recording may be available. \n\n\n\n\nSubscription Info \nIf you have not yet become a Member of the Society and wish to join\, please see our Membership of the Liverpool Astronomical Society page before sending any payment. \n\nNote: Membership Fees are correct as of October 2025 \n\n\n\n\nMembership Type\nPrice\n\n\n\n\nAdults (18 & above) Annual Subscription\n£25.00\n\n\nJuniors (14-17 inclusive) Annual Subscription\n£5.00\n\n\n\n\nPlease note:Subscriptions are due from 1st October each year and must be paid by January 31st or your membership may be suspended.If not paid by 31st March your membership will cease. \nPaying your Subscription Electronically (e.g. via e-banking)\nYou can now pay for your subscription via Internet banking.  \n\n\n\n\nName:\nLiverpool Astronomical Society\n\n\nSort Code:\n60-19-24\n\n\nAccount No.:\n28521250\n\n\nPayment Ref.:\nUse your full name (or as much of it as possible\, remove spaces if needed) as the reference\, so that our Treasurer can connect your payment to the correct account in the books.\n\n\n\n\nPlease contact the Treasurer if you require more information. \n \n \nMore information about membership can be found here. \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 18:30 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 – Mark
