Martin Lunn

Guest Speaker

Martin was curator of Astronomy at the Yorkshire Museum in York from 1989 until 2011 when he took early retirement. As a public astronomer he promoted astronomy at the York Observatory, which is part of the museum, including arranging open viewing evenings and special events. He also undertook astronomical research. Martin worked with North Yorkshire Education Authority and the Yorkshire Museum to produce an event called ‘Earth and Space’ which ran each autumn for six years from 1992. The event was a series of interactive workshops running over a six week period and 6,000 children participated every year. In 1998 Martin was presented with an MBE for services to astronomy and education. Before the pandemic Martin spent his time working in primary schools with his mobile Stardome Planetarium, sometimes presenting additional ‘Star Parties’; after school events where parents and children are shown the night sky. He was also regularly invited to speak to astronomical societies and other general interest groups, and is currently starting to do this from home as more societies embrace virtual meetings. Martin made a series of short films on Youtube about the planets which can be seen on the ‘Hitch Hikers Guide to the Cosmos’ page. He writes the monthly astronomy column for his local newspaper and presents a weekly astronomy show on community radio with internet listeners around the world.

“They helped us find the best grouping of cabins”

When our choice of cabins were already taken they spent time to find the most suitable 3 cabins for our family group. Whilst the ship is usually adults only, they will be putting on child friendly activities for this cruise - ideal for our grandchildren.

“Booking a cruise”

Initially the first call was excellent. Had some problems paying balance but finally overcome.

Trusted Customer

“Not a good start”

I tried to contact Ambassador by phone to check the details of the itinerary. Due to 'high call volumes', I was unable to speak to anybody and requested a call back. This was promised within 2 working hours but never came. I left it for a few days thinking to give up on the idea. When I checked the website again, I noticed the error in the itinerary had been corrected so I went ahead and booked online. This was fairly easy except for difficulty in entering our dates of birth. Hopefully the customer service will improve.

Trusted Customer

Excellent - the advisor was very knowledgeable and helpful
