Cople Tree Care Professional yet personal service Contact me now for a free quote
Welcome to Cople Tree Care
As a qualified tree surgeon with 5 years experience, I am able to undertake a range of services, from felling mature trees to trimming hedges.
I will provide you with a professional yet personal service, and will talk with you to understand what work you would like to have completed, and provide you with a free estimate.
I have the appropriate public liability insurance to undertake work for both individuals or companies.
As trees are dormant during the latter part of the year, it is the best time to resize and reshape any large trees, and deal with any damaged or rotten branches. Fruit trees should be pruned during the winter, this will help to improve the fruit yield in subsequent years.
It is also the best time to plant trees, replacing any that have been lost, or to develop your garden further.

Do you feel that your telescope is just too small?
Here's a friendly place for you to hang out if you get the feeling that your small telescope just isn't big enough to do anything with. To show what you can do with a modest instrument, there are pages of observations and photographs of the moon and planets taken through instruments as small as 2 inch (50mm) aperture, and no bigger than 6 inch (150mm). Though I've been an amateur astronomer for some 45 years (and a professional astronomer for some of that time), I primarily use small and modest sized telescopes. I've been through aperture fever, having owned up to a 10 inch behemoth Newtonian on an Equatorial mount, but my biggest telescopes are 6 inch Newtonians.

IISc AMATEUR ASTRONOMY CLUB
The Amateur Astronomy Club of IISc was started late 1997. Membership is open to all students and faculty of IISc. As of now, what we do is meet on the Raman Building rooftop at night to look at the stars, as opposed to talking about black holes and the big bang ! We have more than a hundred members so far of which some are listed ( rest will be put up soon...) We have a lot of activities planned, subject to sky conditions. As the club is fairly small, we shall take it as it goes, but suggestions are more than welcome. Putting a figure of a man digging the earth would be trite, but of course, this page is very much under construction.

35. Hellenic Supernova Search Team
Features a description of supernovae, members, observatory information, sponsors, other projects, gallery, and news.
http://www.amateur-astronomy.gr/
Observatory status Supernova search is a field in which many amateur astronomers are drastically involved the last few years. The evolution of technology for CCD cameras, telescopes and special software provides the opportunity to amateur observatories to actively and fruitfully participate in the search of dying stars. These dying stars, which erupt with a tremendous force, for a brief period outshine their own host galaxy.
The scientific value of this kind of search lies in the fact that supernovae provide information about how the Universe was formed, how stars evolve and how the Universe is expanding. Supernova search is mostly active in the US and England, where many amateur groups dedicated to this task have been organized. In Greece until recently, no interest has been shown in this kind of observations.
The only known amateur astronomer, who is seriously involved, is Konstantinos Emmanouilidis, a member of Friends of Astronomy Club of Thessaloniki for years. The results of his observations were presented to the public at the 3rd Pan-Hellenic Convention of Amateur Astronomy (October 2003, Halkidiki, Greece), and drew the attention of both amateur and professional astronomers.
