Mid Kent Astronomical Society meeting and observing
Friday 10th March 2023 from 20:00pm to 22:00pm
Bredhurst Village Hall
Hurstwood Road, Bredhurst, Kent, ME7 3JZ
You are invited to join the Mid Kent Astronomical Society members for their monthly meeting at Bredhurst Village Hall.
This event will now be an MKAS Member’s Telescope Clinic allowing MKAS members to address problems arising during the set-up and testing of their new (and perhaps older) telescopes. In addition, they will be able to ask for telescope tips and solutions to issues from experienced MKAS Astronomers with hands-on experience with their type of telescopes. Please email your questions/problems in advance to: [email protected].
Following the presentation, there will be a refreshment break and an observing session in the field behind the hall (weather permitting).
Please note that this has already taken place on 10/03/2023
