Our telescope has arrived at the on campus observatory
We have a brand new observatory on campus near to the University sports pavilion. The telescope was lifted in last week, having been brought to the UK from La Palma where it was used to contribute towards projects on topics ranging from exoplanet and variable star characterisation to global clusters. Our Physics with Astrophysics students will be able to gain hands-on project experience with the telescope starting this academic year.
