Guest Speaker
Thursday, 4th August 2022 (19:45 - 22:00)
Venue: Virtual Meeting
The end of summer brings with it a burst of colour. Red, orange, and yellow leaves turn the fall landscape into a spectacular show. There’s also less light pollution during this time of year, making it perfect for stargazing. This is perfect timing to catch all the sights of the autumn skies.
A night sky tour in October offers so many bright and beautiful things to see. It's no wonder that September has been declared as International Dark Sky Month by the non-profit organization Dark Sky Association.
