Sports & Nature Optics since 1970
Our next Monthly Meeting is on Zoom
John Thatcher
Thursday 28th October 8.00pm – 9.30pm
Webb Space Telescope
This year hopefully sees the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (The ‘Webb’). During this talk John will explain more about what ‘Webb’ will do, why it looks the way it does and what happens after launch. We are looking forward to viewing the photos and videos that will accompany this talk and bring the telescope to life before it is launched into space.
About the speaker
John has worked on a number of spacecraft projects for over 30 years at the space factory in Stevenage, variously called Hawker Siddeley, British Aerospace, Matra Marconi Space, Astrium and now Airbus Defence & Space.
