SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting 18 June 2025
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nThe Eye At Night\n\n\n\nThe eye is the amateur astronomers primary instrument for exploring the cosmos. Tonight’s talk takes a look at the fascinating way the eye works, how images are processed within the brain, and why this is relevant for amateur astronomers (and astronauts!). What fine detail can the eye see in the night sky? How does colour vision work, especially in low light? What tricks can be played by our mind in what we see? And much more!…\nAbout this month’s speaker – Mike Culley\nMike has loved astronomy and space since childhood, and is primarily a visual observer of the deep sky. He has had a varied career, working variously as an Estate Agent, in airline operations, as a Planetarium Lecturer, a Hypnotherapist and as a Chartered Occupational Psychologist. He is a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, and Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society, and now divides his time between working with individual and organisational psychology clients and visiting schools to run science and space workshops…\n—-\nAnyone is welcome – beginner or expert – and there is no need to pre-book.

Doors open at 7.30pm with the talk starting at 8.00pm.\nNote that if you are using satnav system, the postcode may not take you directly to the hall – please check this Google Maps link if you aren’t sure: https://goo.gl/maps/fNxmg9qnAYm ( https://goo.gl/maps/fNxmg9qnAYm )\n \n
