Popup Observe the Moon & Saturn Night with Worthing Astronomers
Wednesday 30th August 2023 from 20:00pm to 23:00pm
Worthing Seafront Promenade
Near Grand Avenue, Worthing, West Sussex, BN11 5AW
Worthing Astronomers will be holding a popup public outreach on Worthing seafront tonight (30/08/23). Saturn and the Moon will be breaking the horizon at 8pm and they will have our telescopes trained on them for you to take a look. Hopefully it’s clear enough but if not you can still take a look at our telescopes and ask questions! This is a free event, just turn up.
Please note that this has already taken place on 30/08/2023
