Tonight’s event promises to be a spectacular evening of astronomy.
The event will begin with a personal welcome from our astronomy team
After the welcome, they will escort you into our new state-of-the-art classroom, which has a cosy feel, and high definition (HD) projection system. They will take you on a whistle-stop tour of the Universe. Following this, we will split into groups and, weather depending, start observing the sky, with our array of telescopes and cameras.
With no Moon in the sky, we will look out for the Milky Way, and many deep sky objects like Galaxies nebulae, and star clusters, then use our robotic telescope to scour the skies for other jewels of the cosmos, for us to ponder.
Then it’s back into the classroom for a hot drink, more astronomy photography questions, and boundless knowledge and inspiration.
We’ve planned quite a night!
