Flamsteed History of Astronomy Group Meeting.

In 2015 Bobby Manoo spent two weeks in Egypt and, like many before, found himself in awe of the majestic ancient monuments, cultural strength, remarkable knowledge of the ancient Egyptians and their in-depth knowledge in maths, science and engineering but, particularly, in their astronomy and their knowledge of our solar system. This visit prompted Bobby to research other ancient monuments and their astronomical connections including, Chitchen Itza temple in Mexico, Machu Pichu, the Chaco Canyon in the USA, the Goseck ring in Germany and, of course, Stonehenge here in the UK. Booby will explain all in his talk on the 23rd May….

THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO MEMBERS OF THE FLAMSTEED ASTRONOMY SOCIETY ONLY.
