Title: An Optics Masterclass Continues with Tony Pirera
Event Info:
Following his incredibly engaging talk last November, Tony returns to build upon the foundation he laid. For those who missed it, Tony is the owner of Spectrum Thin Films and brings decades of practical, hands-on experience in optical coatings and design directly to our club. His unique insight into how our telescopes and eyepieces actually work demystifies the gear we use every night.
This second session promises to delve even deeper. Expect an interactive and visual presentation where Tony will use demonstrations to bring advanced optical principles to life. Whether you're looking to better understand equipment choices or simply marvel at the science behind the views, this talk is not to be missed.
Come with your questions and prepare for another enlightening evening at the heart of our hobby!
