David Sinden Remembered

[Glasspusher]

On the 29th August it will be 9 years since David Sinden passed away. The former (and last) chief optician at the firm of Grubb Parsons inspired many people to go on and learn more about optics and astronomy. To find out more about the work of David and Grubb Parsons please have a look at my modest website:
