Digges Telescope preview

[Rick]

Greg's putting together a few pages about the Digges telescope. You can see a preview (still "under construction") at http://www.orpington-astronomy.org.uk/digges.html

looking good. It'd be great to see this research become more common knowledge. It'd be a shame for it to disappear into a dusty archive.

[Mike]

Yes I agree. I shall get in touch with Astronomy Now to see if they want to do an article on it or maybe feature the society in the society spotlight section.

[Rick]

Might be an idea to ask Gilbert first, as he may have other plans for publication.

[Mike]

OK i'll do nothing till someone speaks to Gilbert.

Nice work on the putting together the info on the Digges Telescope!

I will speak to Gilbert about the article if you would like, Mike, when he gets back from his hols. I thinks its a good idea.

[Greg]

I have just realised my last entry was Annonymous!! I will speak to Gilbert when he gets back from his hols.

[Rick]

I think we guessed who was behind it...

Anything more on those web pages yet?

Hello, found this topic/thread searching on Google for the Digges etc... Is it to be linked to from your main site - it's all very interesting!
Bye for now.

[Rick]

There may be something on Greg's site... (...and if I could remember where that was I'd link it...)

NTL seems to have become incredibly slow at serving pages from homepage.ntlworld.com recently.... :/

Thanks, but can't see anything Digges, just The Big Dig...

Bit of a mix up I think, The Digges telescope link is http://www.orpington-astronomy.org.uk/digges.html the other URL http://homepage.ntlworld.com/greg.smyerumsby/craig/index.html is for the Craig Telescope, of which the foundations were excavated as part of the Big Dig.
