I am a 50-something year old from London. I have a B.Sc. and doctorate in science subjects and still retain a ravenous appetite for scientific knowledge of all kinds.

My Contributions

• Various contributions to pages about Cornwall.
• Various pages about astronomy, particularly with regard to calculations of astronomical events and phenomena. The following are a few examples:
  • Solar eclipse
  • Aberration of light
  • Ernest William Brown

To Do

The following pages need attention:

• Light-time correction
• Occultation
• Parallax – include references
• Apparent places – rename and tidy up

Other Pages

• This is my personal sandbox. It may contain nuggets of new information, but most probably is just a working draft of something.
