Stargazing Event
All are welcome to this free public observing session in Lancaster's Williamson Park on the evening of 24th February 2023. If the weather is clear we'll have fine views of the moon, star clusters, nebulae and maybe a galaxy or two through LaMAS member's telescopes. We'll also have a set of talks throughout the evening on Astronomy and Space in the Park Cafe. If the clouds roll in, we'll still run the talks.
We look forward to seeing there.
