Join Museums Partnership Reading to explore Slough’s comet-connected history.
The Herschel family lived in Observatory House in Slough where they looked to the sky with their famous 40-foot telescope - at the time, the largest in the world. Caroline, born in 1750, discovered eight comets and was the first woman in the world to be paid for her scientific work.
