Hi,
not sure if anyone's heard of the free lectures at Swinburne Uni in Melbourne by the centre for astrophysics and supercomputing.
The one coming up is on Gravitational lensing, oct one is on blackholes.
went for the previous one, it was pretty good.
registration is required though.

Yes. Know about these. These are also part of their online courses in astronomy, the subject matter...that is.

I've been to 2 of them over the years, Swinburne put on good show. I am hoping to get to one of the lectures soon.
