John Tyndall: In the sky, not under it

As Professor of Natural Philosophy at the Royal Institution from 1853 to 1887, John Tyndall made major contributions to scientific knowledge in magnetism, in identifying what we now call the greenhouse effect, in discovering why the sky is blue and in glacier behaviour. To celebrate the launch of the first volume of his correspondence, Ri historian Frank James hosts talks on Tyndall’s early life, his relationship with the Ri and the future of collaborative humanities research.
