Border Astronomical Society Meeting and Observing

Border Astronomical Society Meeting and Observing

Thursday 22nd September 2022 from 19:30pm to 21:30pm

Trinity School Observatory
Strand Road, Carlisle, Cumbria, CA1 1JB

Everyone is welcome to join the Border Astronomical Society members for this one of their regular meetings at the Trinity School Observatory in Carlisle. These sessions are informal and sometimes include a presentation by a guest speaker.

The opportunity to observe through their observatory’s large aperture 16″ reflecting telescope takes priority if the weather permits. Attending the events is free; however, a donation is welcomed, which goes towards costs and improvements.

Please note that this has already taken place on 22/09/2022

Event darkness

The Moon has a big impact on the visibility of celestial bodies in the night sky. Try to plan your stargazing when there is no bright Moon at night as this is when the skies will be at their darkest.

The below chart shows if and when the skies will be at their darkest during this event. Moonlight is shown in light yellow and the Sun's twilight in light blue. Midnight on the date shown is shown as a white line with sunset to the left and sunrise the next morning to the right. A black background with stars shows the best times for stargazing.
