Jack is going to give us a tour of his observatory and explain how he acquires Spectra.

Due to the earlier time, we will record this and make it available for later watching but hopefully some of you can make it to this early slot. We will also be having an additional member talk in the evening at the usual time slot, details to be announced shortly.

Hopefully see lots of you twice on Sunday 🙂

A new subject for me, I wonder how I might apply what I learn to what I have to use, this will be an interesting one.
