March 6th Meeting : Andy Blanchard

The Presidents You May Not Know. Telescopes. Obsession. Results

• They were not famous.
• They were not paid.
• They did not wait for permission.
• They met after work.
• They built telescopes in basements and garages.
• They argued about mirrors, mounts, and meetings.
• What they created still stands.
• An observatory.
• A centre with history.
• A line you are now standing in.
• This is the story of the Presidents you may not know.
• And the results you still benefit from today.
