Keele University Observatory celebrates its 50th anniversary
Keele University Observatory celebrates its 50th anniversary with a special programme of talks in the Westminster Theatre, on the Keele campus, on Saturday, 19 May, 2012, featuring Allan Chapman, as well as representation by the European Southern Observatory, which also celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.
There will be the launch of the publication of Ron Maddison's booklet on the history of Keele Observatory. Ron Maddison will be coming over from Florida to speak at the event and do some booklet signing. This is followed by a "Sun and Star Party" at the observatory.

It's free for the public but though those wishing to attend need to reserve a ticket (http://www.astro.keele.ac.uk/Observatory/history/50/event.html) as the theatre has limited seating capacity.
