I thought my subscribers would like to know that I have been invited to open the new Observatory and Telescope at the Robert Hooke Centre at Westminster School London on 18th January 2019 with an address “Interstellar Spectroscopy and the Dawn of a New Paradigm”

Westminster School London was founded in 1600 during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and is arguably the most famous in the Western world.  It was founded during the lifetime of Galileo and counts among its past pupils John Locke and Hooke amongst others!

All the best for 2019
