Moon Trumps was a great part of the course. I spent about an hour and a half playing that. My good buddy brought me a pack as well so I can play with friends and at our Astro Meetings.
If only they would create a function where we can play against each other online. :cheer:

Abi wrote: Thanks martin, Edinburgh Uni do a pretty interesting one called 'The Discovery of the Higgs Boson' which would probably interest you. It contains some lengthily lectures, but worth completing. Also there's interviews with Peter Higgs at the end of each week. Recommended! :)


Is that on Futureleam too Abi? The list of stuff I want to learn is growing by the day :-)

My other signature is much better than this one!

I subscribe to it and get it monthly... ( Also I will be featured in issue 40 )


I am going to get a copy this weekend I think. I knew this website and forum was going to cost me :lol:

James's idea of watching 'The Sky at Night' which is on every last Thursday of every month on BBC4 is a good one
(even if it does dislodge my fix of TOTP 1980 and Legs & Co for that week)
Another obvious one is NASA's Website :-)
