Welcome to the 20th episode of the Urban Astronomer Podcast, featuring a public talk given by Edwin le Grange at ScopeX 2017.  This episode has been a long time coming, because I’m doing something new that I’ve never done before and it’s taken me way longer to figure out that I’d really anticipated, but I finally got there, we’re here, and your patience is about to be rewarded. As you’ll know from previous episodes, the annual ScopeX telescope and astronomy … Continue reading →

Our feature item introduces my new co-host, and … Continue reading →
