Somerset Levels Stargazers monthly meeting and observing
Wednesday 25th September 2024 from 19:30pm to 21:30pm
Othery Village Hall
Fore Street, Othery, Somerset, TA7 0QU
Everyone interested in astronomy is welcome to attend this regular monthly meeting of Somerset Levels Stargazers, which takes place every last Wednesday of each month (except December).
The location at Othery Village Hall makes for an excellent stargazing location because it benefits from dark, rural skies. Each meeting includes a variety of talks and presentations with observing afterwards if weather permits. Everyone who attends can expect a warm welcome!
No booking is required, and there’s a small charge on the door to include hot drinks. This event is a fantastic opportunity to get away to a dark sky site with some friendly astronomers and go stargazing!
Please note that this has already taken place on 25/09/2024
