The Rotary Club of Church Wilne recently welcomed David Greatbatch, amateur astronomer, to its speaker meeting, he gave a fascinating talk on Modern Day Space Exploration.

We started off with looking at images from the James Webb telescope, which can see back to when the universe was only 2% of its current age.
