On Monday 15th December six students completed the ‘Elements of Astrophysics’, and as it was the end of the course they received there certificates of merit. It was a five week interest course covering the main subjects of:-
1. Nuclear and atomic physics – power source of the stars.
2. Quantum physics – atomic spectra, messages from the stars.
3. Gravity.
4. Light in space – the electromagnetic spectrum.
So it’s a big well done to Peter Kaye, Neville Whittingham, David Sanders, Linda Schoffield, Debbie Spur and Jane Liddle.
