Tonight

Two talks and then viewing through telescopes

7.30pm Ninian Boyle His talk is called 'Death from Space' and is about the threats we face from 'out there'! It will be light hearted (mostly!) and informative. (About and hour)

8.30pm Peter Burgess His talk will tell us what we could see in the sky this coming month (about 20mins)

The telescopes will be out at the Observatory from 8.30pm. Come along for all or part of it. Young children are very welcome, but may find the talks a bit long, so it's ok to turn up just to see the telescopes.

Bring a torch

Please Note: this meeting is at the Pavilion next to the observatory in Newchurch. Opposite Amazon World
