Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution: Touring the universe from a back garden

This Bath Astronomers talk explores how a modest telescope setup in a suburban back garden can be used to observe the night sky and reach deep into the cosmos. Chris Lee explains how short observations, each lasting under an hour, can still reveal distant galaxies and other fascinating features of the universe through digital imaging.

The talk is designed to show that deep-sky observation does not have to be limited to professional observatories or elaborate equipment. Attendees will gain an insight into the physics behind what they are seeing, along with practical inspiration for beginning their own back-garden astronomy journey.

It is a public talk at BRLSI and must be booked in advance via TicketSource.
