Summer Stargazing and BBQ

Summer Stargazing and BBQ

Friday 12th July 2024 from 19:00pm to 23:00pm

Exford Bridge Tea Rooms
Chapel Street, Exford, Somerset, TA24 7PY

Enjoy a Summers evening stargazing with the team from Wild About Exmoor!

The event includes Bruce’s infamous barbeque outside the cafe and the opportunity to gaze at the Sun using specialist equipment if the weather is fine.

After an informative Sun-related presentation there’ll be a short walk into the Dark Sky Reserve to hopefully watch the Sun set and be the first to spot the nighttime stars appearing.

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.
