A Celebration of the work of Lord Blackett and Professor Sir Edward Bullard, on the Physics of the Earth.
Although both were trained in nuclear physics, Patrick Blackett and Edward (Teddy) Bullard enjoyed careers that encompassed the Earth sciences. They were both convinced that Wegener’s ideas about continental drift had been right and their work on seismology, geomagnetism and marine geology significantly contributed to the theory of plate tectonics.

REGISTRATION: Registration for the meeting will be £15, payable in advance here.
