Tweedledee Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 BBC4 tonight 9pm. Britain's Starmen: Heroes of Astronomy. Four astronomers go on a road trip to revisit some of the world's greatest observatories. Looks good. Astronigel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only stumbled upon it last night flicking through the channel guide to see if there was anything better than Corrie to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithysteve Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Well I thoroughly enjoyed the programme. Four genteel, quintessentially British, academics. All 75+ year olds on a mission to relive a journey they all made 50 years ago - big professional scopes, big rugged terrain, brilliant full stop. The program started off showing one of the professors opening up and describing the 24" reflector scope, in Cambridge university grounds and it brought it all back to me. Last year I and a few other Astro buddies were privelidged to be shown around the very same domed scope. All wonderful stuff!
