Astrocampus Observing Evening - Winter 2022

Join the team from Astrocampus York for a family-friendly evening exploring the night sky and trying hands-on space-science activities.

Tour the observatory and discover what to look for in the night sky. Then, when the weather allows, observe the Moon, planets, and stars with our telescopes and binoculars.

Even if the weather lets us down, find out about meteors and handle our genuine meteorite, investigate how new space telescopes work using an infra-red camera, and learn about the scale of the Solar System with craft activities.

Events are free of charge, go ahead whatever the weather, and must be booked in advance.
