CURIOSITY, CONSTELLATIONS, CONSERVATION

This family-friendly evening is a fun way to get out in the dark, learn about the night sky and expand your awareness of our night sky heritage.

It may be a little cool, but May is the perfect month to get out and look for celestial objects - IF the skies are clear - Look for far off galaxies through the TELESCOPES, hear Fred Watson talk about the wonders of the universe, learn about the beauty of the night sky, and participate in a CITIZEN SCIENCE project to map the sky in the area, or jump into Starrs Planetarium and learn first nation stories about the night sky.

Bring your own telescope and binoculars if you have them. You can learn how to use them to stargaze, or just look through the telescopes provided by our team of amateur astronomers.

Tickets must be pre-purchased and are available at https://www.darkskytraveller.com.au/events-activities.
