Hey Lex : you do know Martin (until recently) held the same  "royal position" as Isaac Newton - ie ASTRONOMER ROYAL .<br><br>FYI Astronomer Royal is a senior post in the Royal Households of the United Kingdom. There are two officers, the senior being the Astronomer Royal dating from 22 June 1675; the second is the Astronomer Royal for Scotland dating from 1834. The post was created by King Charles II in 1675, at the same time as he founded the Royal Observatory Greenwich. Jun 18 2019<br><br>Greenwich : Great place to spend 1/2 a day as a tourist in London.
