Moray's Astronomy Club, SIGMA

Next meeting:  Friday 3th February: Seeing the Quantum World Through a Telescope- Maarten de Vries (HAS)

Maarten asks “is it possible to see what’s happening at subatomic level by looking through a telescope, and if so, how can we make sense out of it all”? This thought provoking talk will take you through the bewildering and counter-intuitive world of quantum physics, highlighting some of the biggest questions that are still unanswered, including how this links in to what we can observe in the universe today.

If you're thinking of joining the Club then come along and 'try before you buy' as the first meeting is free.

Images of the Moment:

This image was taken by  Pete Sherman on January 22nd 2012. We were very fortunate to have a break in the cloud cover at 10pm that night long enough to see the Northern Lights. More images by Pete and Alan Tough can be found in the gallery.
