- Well-trained eyes can be remarkably useful for capturing light curves of evolving objects in the cosmos, even contributing to modern research programmes.
This lecture will consider how stargazing with imperfect, non-linear human eyes can accomplish such a feat, and the important contributions that this makes to elucidating the phenomena of nova detonations in our galaxy.
A lecture by Katherine Blundell OBE

This entire series is fantastic.
Interesting and just the right amount of extradisciplinary input. Thanks for posting.
Professor Katherine Blundell is a fantastic speaker. I really enjoy her talks. Reminds me of Carolin Crawford who is also a brilliant speaker in the field of astronomy.
Makes my day to see the night.
You are my hero
Thanks, professor.
Schiaparelli hypothesis was vitally popular in 19th centure, as well, as his scientific lectures gathered large audience, his astronomical ideas gained as much popularity as Holywood movies, also work on planet Mars, that had been done by him is really tremendous and a large amount of money funded in the project of searching intelligence on Red planet is too pretty noticable. Currently, he is no more like a legendary scientist and mysterious canals are no more like fiction.
