Born into a poor family, this is a rags to riches story about a self-taught man who would go on to become one of the greatest telescope makers. He built what was at the time the biggest telescope in the world, made a telescope for Prince Albert and even built steam cars.https://youtu.be/GzqbcZuxZlQASE members will join via Zoom and visitors can watch live on our YouTube channel.(Image courtesy of Andrew Farrow: Thomas Cooke telescope at Calton Hill, Edinburgh)
