2009 has been designated as the first International Year of Astronomy to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the first astronomical use of the telescope, and Autumn Moon Watch is one of the national events you might hear about.
Following the very popular event in Spring, Autumn Moon Watch will run from Friday 23rd October to Sunday 25th October and from Friday 30th October to Sunday 1st November. These two weekend events week will offer superb opportunities for viewing the first quarter Moon and also the planet Jupiter.
We will use the same format and cost as our normal open evenings. (£7.50 for adults, £5.00 for children under 12)
