Last week I did a school visit that I hope might have a bit more impact that the average. I spent the day visit my old school in Coleshill, North Warwickshire (near Birmingham). I took my "Rainbow View of Andromeda" short talk, an IR camera (always fun) and templates to make CD spectroscopes.
Here's the report the school did.
"The strongest affection and utmost zeal should, I think, promote the studies concerned with the most beautiful objects. This is the discipline that deals with the universe's divine revolutions, the stars' motions, sizes, distances, risings and settings . . . for what is more beautiful than heaven?" - Nicolas Copernicus
