We don’t tend to have arranged presentations at these public meetings however there is planetarium software\, astronomical images (many of them taken by our members)\, etc. \nSo good weather or bad\, feel free to pop along!\nWhether you’re a complete beginner or a professional astronomer\, or just interested\, we welcome you.\nPerhaps you’ve recently bought a telescope but don’t know how to set it up or get the best from it – bring it along with you (if it’s portable enough!) and somebody will be happy to help you. If it’s too big to bring along\, write down the manufacturer and model number\, and maybe a couple of photos if possible\, and if it’s a telescope we’re familiar with we may still be able to advise. \nIf you have any questions about our public Weekly Meetings\, please contact the Director of the Observatory. \n \nThe observatory is also available exclusively to LAS Members at other times of the week – please contact the Director of the Observatory for more information. \nLeighton Observatory in snow\, January 9th 2010 \n\nNo related posts found.
