NEWS:
More taster sessions will start up in September.
North Pennines Observatory https://www.acart.org.uk/observatory-allenheads invite our ‘Astro Curious’ neighbours to come along and check out our observatory at the Old Schoolhouse, Allenheads.
The taster sessions at the observatory have provided a lovely informal introduction to ACA's observatory introducing people to the fantastically clear sky above Allenheads, observing Venus, Jupiter, Mars, the Pleiades, Orion, scintillating Sirius and the Milky Way. Followed by hot chocolate and interesting conversation in the warm room.
If you would like to attend please message me with your preferred dates, and be prepared for a short notice reply from me to say that the conditions are good, or not. Might be an idea to include your phone number so that I can be sure to make contact. If you would like to come along contact Alan Smith via FB message or email alanshead@acart.org.uk
This is an open invite to introduce you to our facilities and discuss how you might get involved in the future in all things ‘dark skies’. Introductions will be run as a series of informal, social evenings for small groups of 10 max, with refreshments.
The idea is to create a local interest group for those living close enough to respond at relatively short notice, to come to the observatory to enjoy our beautiful dark skies.
Please pass this on to any of your friends or family who don't use social media. Suitable for adults and families.
