From Free

Online Event

Description

Ben Sutlieff is a member of the Wells and Mendip Astronomers and following on from his degree, he has gone on to the University of Amsterdam to undergo his PhD research into researching giant exoplanets and the instruments needed to image them. This talk is sure to be both super interesting and informative. Here is Ben's synopsis:
"Recent advancements in technology now allow us to image giant exoplanets directly, offering the first glimpses into their atmospheres. In this talk I will explain the innovative methods used to achieve this and the exciting things we can learn about these distant worlds, from their formation to the chemical compositions of their clouds, and the vast weather systems that cross their skies."

Our aims extend to increasing public awareness and outreach events at this very important time for science and space exploration through our programme of events, talks and star parties.

We would like to welcome anyone interested in astronomy; whether you are a  beginner or experienced astronomer - young or old. We will do our best to help, so please come and join us.
