Monthly Meeting 21 October 2026

From Sky to Screen – Making the Invisible Visible

with Claire Bradshaw FRAS

About the Talk

The talk will cover a range of night sky objects from galactic to lunar (catering for a spread of interests)– including how the pictures were taken

About the Speaker

Claire Bradshaw is a Horsham based astronomer, astrophotographer and public speaker, speaking to a range of people from school children to adult groups about astronomy. After getting a U in A Level Physics, she knew she would never be an academic but she combined her love of astronomy and photography to become a back-garden astrophotographer. Every photo she has taken has been taken from the garden as the equipment is just too heavy to lug around.

 

As an eLearning developer, she likes nothing more than utilising those skills and making astronomy accessible to all.
