Herstmonceux Astronomy Festival 2008 lecture

Published Tuesday, 29 April, 2008 astronomy outreach , observatories , talks

I’m very pleased to announce that I will be giving a talk at this year’s Herstmonceux Astronomy Festival, held at the famous Herstmonceux observatory in Sussex. The subject of my talk will be the science behind the Hubble Space Telescope’s greatest images. I’m very excited about speaking at the festival and a little daunted at the same time as the other speakers are all very highly regarded astronomers. I’m sure it will be great fun though and I’m really looking forward to it. To find out more about the festival, which will be held on the 5th, 6th and 7th of September, visit the Observatory Science Centre’s website here.
