HOWICK U3A GUEST SPEAKER
Come along to the Howick Bowling Club on the 8th September to listen to Jennie McCormick.
Jennie is an amateur astronomer who conducts astronomical research from her observatory in Farm Cove, Auckland. She has been involved in the collaborative discovery of more than 25 distant planets, including a new solar system and Binary Star Solar System.
She takes regular data on Cataclysmic Variable stars for the Center for Backyard Astrophysics and measures the positions of comets and asteroids for the Minor Planet Center.
In September 2009, Jennie discovered her first asteroid and officially named it, New Zealand!
Our meeting starts at 9.30am. U3A focuses on ongoing learning for age 55 plus, retirees, and semi retirees. Check out www.u3ahowicknz.co.nz.... visitors are welcome.
