Scientific paper
Dr Henden remarked in opening that he had always considered himself a professional astronomer, but had also always felt the line between amateurs and professionals to be a very grey one. After all, the word 'amateur' derived from the Latin verb 'amare' (to love), and whilst he was a professional in the sense that he earned his livelihood by his work, was he not also an amateur if he loved doing it? With this thought in mind, he was keen for both astronomical communities to acknowledge the common passion that they shared.
