3D Technologies and Archaeology
The use of digital survey techniques has transformed how archaeologists set about detection, recording, analysis and presentation of objects, monuments and landscapes. The exponential increase in computing power means ever more complex, detailed and accurate datasets can be collected, opening up new possibilities to the study of the historic environment. This talk will discuss some of the ways that new surveying technologies and 3D recording techniques have revolutionised field archaeology.

Imaging Space from Space - the bigger picture
Mitigating the risk of space debris and space object identification for defence purposes require advanced imaging techniques using imaging platforms which are themselves in orbit. But with objects in space far apart from one another, and moving with very high relative velocity, how can this be achieved? Expert in Non-Earth Imaging (NEI), Catie Allen reveals.

TSR2 - Cock-Up or Conspiracy
The speaker is an experienced ex RAF fighter pilot, who was probably destined to fly the TSR2. This was not to be and he will give his personal view on the various factors that led up to the controversial cancellation in 1965 of, arguably, the most advanced strike aircraft of its time - cost, performance, innovation, politics, in-fighting, opposing cultures, information, disinformation, missing information, speculation.
