Blue Moon Rising

Blue Moon Rising - Well we have all heard of a 'Blue Moon' The second Full Moon of the month, rises fully illuminated and what a sight it is!

Bring the kids, bring your granny, this will appeal to everyone. Tonight, we will cover details that will amaze, inform, thrill, and engage you - then it's off to the telescopes for the chance to observe the sky, through some seriously powerful pieces of equipment. We will use cameras to take pictures of what we see, as we gaze at the stars overhead.

After the observing ends, it's back inside for a hot drink and a chat, before you head off home!
