Cambridge University Astronomical Society Neptune 2026
Author of an article for Neptune, the annual magazine of the Cambridge University Astronomical Society
I wrote an article for Neptune, the annual magazine of the Cambridge University Astronomical Society, offering a behind-the-scenes glimpse into observing nights with the 16-inch telescope at the University of Cambridge Institute of Astronomy dome. Blending first-hand experience with accessible astronomy, it explores the telescope’s precision tracking system and the red-lit observatory environment that helps preserve night vision. It also shows how modern software and carefully chosen eyepieces bring the Moon and other celestial objects into striking detail.
