Join the Northumberland Astronomical Society for a really far out, immersive stargazing experience, as Dr Adrian Jannetta guides us through the dark skies of Northumberland.
You will get the chance to use the telescope (housed in the Hauxley observatory) and weather permitting, get to see the wonders of the night’s sky! (Please note this is dependent of weather conditions). Book early to avoid disappointment.
