Thursday 7th October 2021 from 20:00pm to 22:00pm

Brecon - Libanus Mountain Centre
Libanus, Brecon, Powys, LD3 8ER, Wales

Join a group of like-minded individuals to enjoy the wonderful dark skies over the Brecon Beacons.

Experienced astronomers will guide you around the night sky from constellations to nebula, learning the mythology and science of astronomy. No experience is needed, just an enthusiasm to learn more about the night sky.

All astronomical equipment is provided but please wrap up warm as the mountain can become very cold.

Please note that this has already taken place on 07/10/2021

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.
