Jan Timmerman's web page

[Merlin66]

http://www.thefirmament.nl/astro/main_screen.html

There may be many of us who fondly remember the excellent work done by Jan with his modest solar equipment....

I just checked, to find the webpage is no longer supported....bumma!

He had loads of very interesting images and equipment on his page....

It's a timely reminder to all of us, some things just get lost to future generations......made me think also of Maurice Gavin's excellent contributions to amateur astronomy 

RIP 

[Edit] It appears that Maurice's webpage (astroman.fsnet.co.uk/spectro.htm) has also been lost......

The WayBack Machine has crawled Jan's website. Bits, maybe all of it, are archived.

This is a snapshot from August 2018:

You can go there and save pages for future reference.

Maurice's website was archived too: 91 times between September 14, 2000 and May 2, 2018.

I never remember the site of the WayBack Machine, but you can find it with google. Go there, enter the url of the website you want to see a past version of, click on a year, scroll down to the calendar, click on a circled date and enjoy.
