A great evening, the staff shared some great insights into their areas of expertise on an early spring evening. You always have to remember the amount of actual star gazing is dependent on the weather conditions. We had a mixed evening with clear patches amongst cloudy skies. The team are however really well greased up to keep e eryone entertained with presentations and pray tical demonstrations. In cooler months make sure you wrap up well and take a torch to help find your way around outside. The track up is a couple of miles long on compacted gravel. We went up, and down, perfectly OK on motorbikes, having sought advice before our visit. We would feintely visit again if back in the area

My friends and I attended the Discovering New Worlds event - it was amazing. The staff were so knowledgable, friendly, engaging, and passionate about what they do. We weren't able to observe very much due to hazy weather but it didn't matter because we were blown away by what we learned.
