Fantastic visit to their Observatory Open evening. Friendly Knowledgeable members. Hands on approach to the evening
Great fun. Very interesting. Well informed and helpful knowledgeable members. Highly recommend a visit.
I went along on one of there open evenings. They are very happy to help setup telescope and explain about equatorial mounts etc, if you're new to astronomy. Very good view of Jupiter and Saturn through the 20" inch reflector telescope the evening l went
Went there as found a sky map, which classified this spot as milky way grade which means a Mway could be seen with naked eye. Unfortunately, could not bee seen even with astrophotography as to many light pollution in the area. I hope to visit observatory itself once it is opened
A great group of knowledgeable people, with a warm and friendly way with visitors. Highly recommend then to anyone, especially people interested in Astronomy.
Informative talks, more senior members are always ready to help. The observatory is ideally located for both planetary and deep field astronomical work
