Display and short talk in the Guesten Hall then outside to look for the Leonids. Not many seen but plenty of telescopes for visitors to enjoy the night sky. Avoncroft provided the cocoa.
Guest Speaker - William Edmondson will give a presentation entitled: "How to search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence". New Members welcome. Doors open 7:30pm.
Small display and telescopes to promote the society and astronomy.
As visitors learnt of the opportunity to look at the moon and Jupiter through members telescopes more visitors seized a glimpse and were happy to talk about their experiences and ask questions.
A quiz night, which we hope will be similar to the Inter Society Quiz held earlier in the year. Hopefully, a buffet too.
A chance to get the telescopes out, if clear. General discussion, help sort out problems etc.
