Stargazing and talk 'Losing the Cosmos'
Enjoy an evening of stargazing, including a laser-guided tour of the constellations and views through telescopes of planets, galaxies, stellar nurseries, star clusters and more (weather permitting). Learn how you can protect and promote your dark skies in the informative talk 'Losing the Cosmos'. If the weather isn't clear, don't worry, as there will be lots of other space-themed activities on offer indoors: telescope demos, meteorites, virtual reality headsets (Scale of the Universe), projections of the night sky (flat-screen) and Q&A with our astronomers.
