Must join the BHI!  Never mind Antikythera, this month’s taster article is right up my street:  a laser mounted on a pendulum, and two Arduinos, a perfect digital delight…

I am grossly simplifying, but the main conclusion of the Antikythera paper seems to be that the photographic and tomographic images are not consistent.

Ho Hum

Dave, do you have a link for that? I tried the BHI site but failed

Interesting as the laser article is, Dave …^^^  that’s a rather aggressive hi-jack

You could easily have started another topic.

Apologies Michael, I tried to add value and it landed with a crash!

For Duncan, that taster article is on the BHI Website, this page.

Thank you for the apology, Dave … duly accepted and appreciated.

The point was  that several of us had put-in quite a lot of effort on the previous Antikythera topic, and I presumed some would be interested in the new paper.

Now my subject line is largely irrelevant.

 

There are much worse things going on in the world, and I’m happy to forget it.
