Hi @chrislintott - just a quick note to let you know that when our planned speaker had to cancel at the last moment*, we shared yr Gresham Lecture "First light: Revealing the Early Universe" lecture with our members. It went really really well. Thanks. * a very valid reason!
We're meeting in person again - on 24th November in Norley WA6 8NE First time back since Feb 2020. Contact us via the website if you'd like to join us.
Don't forget it's Club Night on Friday, with Nigel Ball giving a talk on "Nightscape Photography". All welcome at the Forest Explorer's Cabin at Delamere at 7:30pm. And it may be clear afterwards, so bring your scopes just in case.
Our March Meeting is this Friday. Member's talks and an Astro buy/sell/swap. Bring along any Astro related equipment or books that you don't need any more and pick up someone else's. That's how it works isn't it?
Wondering what our Club Meeting will feature? It's another talk by one of our favourite speakers; @julianonions will be talking about "Things that go Bang in the night (sky)". Don't miss it. 7:30pm Friday 23rd February.
A reminder that our next Club meeting is this coming Friday 23rd February. 7:30pm at the Delamere Forest Explorers Cabin.

Don't forget that our November meeting is this Friday at 7.30pm at the Forest Explorers cabin. Our guest speaker is Prof Andy Newsam @AstroAndyN.

Seeing lots of ads popping up as we approach Xmas where you can ‘buy a star’ from the Star Registry! Its utter bollox I’m afraid. No-one can name stars other than @IAU_org The only person that recognises ‘your’ star name is you ! Pls don’t waste ur money
Missed the Jupiter & Venus conjunction but managed to take a Circumpolar image. 4hours in total. 4hours in total. @astrofarmfrance
Credit to the excellent book Night Scenes 2017 by Paul Money for the tip-off and for the graphic.
Don't forget to look at the Moon at about 11pm on Sunday 5th. The moon occults θ1 Tau, but only if you're in the Northern half of UK
