@rsutcliff @WhippleMuseum One of my favourite works to teach: A Philosopher giving that Lecture on the Orrery in which a lamp is put in place of the Sun by Joseph Wright of Derby, 1766.
An ‘orrery’ is a moving model of the motions of the Earth, Moon, & Sun. Orreries can be used to demonstrate day and night, the seasons, lunar phases, and eclipses. There may be a candle in the centre to stand for the light of the Sun. (Via @WhippleMuseum )

Last week 5,500 objects weighing just over 3 tons were moved to our new off-site store. Many of them were boxes of archaeological artefacts, and once they arrived at their new home it was time for our amazing #StoresMove team to unpack, sort and shelve them! #StoresMoveMonday
