SUMMARY:Tanabata Festival (Japanese Star Festival)
DESCRIPTION:Come and join the Conservation Volunteers and Liverpool Astronomical Society to celebrate Tanabata\, or the Star Festival\, it is held on the evening of 7 July throughout Japan. The festival traces its origins to a romantic legend that the Cowherd Star (Altair) and Weaver Star (Vega)\, lovers separated by the Milky Way\, are allowed to meet just once a year on the seventh day of the seventh month. \nPeople\, especially children\, write their wishes such as “I want to become good at football” or “I want to become an astronaut” on narrow strips of colored paper called tanzaku and hang them\, along with other paper ornaments\, on bamboo branches placed in the backyards or entrances of their homes. \nThey then pray hard in the hope that their wishes will come true. Towns and cities take on a festive mood during the Tanabata season\, with colorful decorations. Special events and concerts based on the Tanabata legend are held at places like science museums and planetariums. \nAt the Liverpool Garden Festival there will be workshops so people can have a go at Origami\, Calligraphy\, making paper decorations and will be able to attach their tanzaku on the bamboo on site. The Liverpool Astronomical Society will be showing (weather permitting) our nearest star through special telescopes. \nThere will be refreshments on site. The main Tanabata event will be taking place on Saturday 12th July between 10am – 3pm. \nContacts:\nThe Festival Garden\nCaroline Bamford\nFestival Gardens Ranger\n07795 800 970 \nThe Conservation Volunteers\nFestival Gardens\nRiverside Drive\nLiverpool\nL17 7BF \nLiverpool A.

SUMMARY:International Sun Day\, 22nd June 2014
DESCRIPTION:For International SUN-day\, June 22nd 2014\, The Liverpool Astronomical Society is hosting a FREE solar observing day at their Leighton Observatory\, Pex Hill\, Cronton. \nThe event runs from 1pm to 5pm\, and will give people the opportunity to SAFELY view the sun through specially adapted telescopes\, allowing you to see details you would never normally be able to view. There are also illustrated talks taking place\, along with free tea\, coffee and biscuits. \nPlease remember\, if you do NOT have specialist equipment you must NEVER view the sun through a magnifying device such as binoculars or telescopes – without the correct filters you will almost certainly become permanently blind! (Think of using a magnifying glass focussing the sun to burn something and multiply by many times!) \nOur telescopes have specialised filters which remove the harmful heat and light\, enabling you to see\, without becoming blind\, the detail such as prominences (huge eruptions of plasma\, often many many times the size of the Earth) which are usually invisible to us due to the rest of the sun’s extreme brightness. \n
