Radio Astronomy - Tuning into the local Universe.

Radio Astronomy is perfect for cloudy skies (and we've had lot of those, haven't we!)
In this talk, you will learn how we can receive natural radio signals from within our Galaxy and where these signals come from.
The talk will also explain how we, at the Norwich Astronomical Society, as amateurs, are going about detecting these signals.
Visit us on Saturday 21st

He will explain how we can receive natural Radio signals from within our Galaxy and where they come from. The talk will also explain how we, at the Norwich Astronomical Society, as amateurs,....

Thanks to all those that attended the observatory and telescope training session at the observatory last night. Less than optimal sky conditions, but that didn't stop the group running through the training programme the society has in place to sign off members to use the observatory instruments solo! Let's hope for some clear skies over the coming weeks so that the trainees can get to use their expertise to hunt down the ancient light of distant suns with the Seething telescopes!
