Hi Glen,
A fitting tribute to one of our greatest yet least known astronomers ( even though he was a Scotsman )
Well done indeed !!
I knew about James Dunlop well before I got into the hobby back in 2016
My son lived in Dunlop st North Parramatta for a number of years and my wife and I would often take the grandkids for a walk through Parramatta Park.
It’s a real shame Dunlop is virtually unknown outside the amateur astronomy community.

Cheers
Martin
PS: I should take a drive to Kincumber on the Central Coast to visit his gravesite ( probably overgrown with weeds )
