Meeting 13 September, 2022 7:00PM Mountain Time
The summer has come and gone, the weather should be a bit better. It will
be pretty cold at night and getting colder. As a general rule the
early fall is a good set of clear and stable nights.
This month, we will host John Briggs, a astronomer and astronomer
historian. His program about the Lyceum down in Magdalena NM changes
with the collection. One recent addition was the AAVSO book collection.
These books retain the knowledge of their day. Knowledge that shaped
how theories were framed and the observing campaigns that tested that
world view. The Lyceum itself is a collection of some of the instruments
designed to support those observations. New discoveries caused ideas,
recorded in new books and propelled even newer instruments for new
data yet. Memory of the past stages of this dynamic process of science
is a rewarding study all in itself.
Join us in Zoom -- 7:00 PM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT) 01:00 UT.
Here is the Zoom invitation:
