Observing with Melton and District Astronomical Society
Friday 29th November 2024 from 19:30pm to 21:30pm
Gaddesby Village Hall
Ashby Road, Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, LE7 4WF
Join members of Melton and District Astronomical Society for one of their regular meetings. These meetings often include a talk or presentation; however, being predominantly an observing Society, the priority is always to get outside and look up!
Members bring an assortment of telescopes which visitors are welcome to use; this is an excellent opportunity for beginners to find out how to start their interest in astronomy.
