The Institute of Physics, in collaboration with the EPS History of Physics Group has organised an International Conference on the History of Physics, which takes place in Cambridge, at Trinity College, September 4th-5th. The conference is the inaugural for a whole series dedicated to all aspects of the history of physics. The leading theme for this year is ‘Electromagnetism: the Road to Power’. Brian Tanner, recently honoured by the Institute with the 2014 Gabor Medal and Prize, will be taking the Ordered Universe’s work on Grosseteste’s universe to the conference, in a poster presentation on the 5th September. If you are in Cambridge, Brian would be delighted to see and talk to you about the project. For those of you that can’t be there, or even those that plan to and would like a preview we have posted a copy of the poster here on the Ordered Universe blog site. Since the conference is the first of a series, Ordered Universe aims to attend as many subsequent meetings as possible.
