Dr Allan Chapman, FRAS, Oxford University, There was an Englishman, a Frenchman, and a Spectroscope

Allan will talk to us about Norman Lockyer, Jules Janssen, and the discovery of Helium in 1868

No-doubt,  these gentlemen are just two of the many “Victorian Amateur Astronomers” that Allan has written about

Allan’s second talk will be in the new year, and for those members that have not had the pleasure, of one of Allan’s talks you are in for an interesting evening, with no doubt some interesting insights, especially as Allan does not use PowerPoint to illustrate his talks, and also uses no written notes,
