Friday Morning Talks: Photographic Reconnaissance and Interpretation – With Aldon Ferguson

Join us at the Museum for our Friday morning talk, where Aldon Ferguson will be talking to us about Photographic Reconnaissance and Interpretation.

Even since the beginning of the First World War it has been possible and vital for military commanders to have knowledge of their enemy’s disposition, numbers and support in order to plan future campaigns and battles. Starting from static balloons tethered close to the front line to the ultra sophistication of modern satellite imagery, this talk explains how the material is gathered and how it is interpreted.

It will take place in the Museum’s Learning Centre for those with Museum admission or Annual Membership.
