Join us as we host Clydesdale Astronomical Society for an introduction to stargazing and moon watching.

<p>When you look up at the sky at night, do you know what you&#x27;re looking at?  Can you tell a star from a planet from a piece of space hardware?  Star gazing helps us to realise how important our planet is, how fragile it could be if we don’t look after it and the huge part we have to play.  Come along to find out what is going on in the heavens and what you can look out for when you look up.</p><p>The CPRE Star Count runs from 6th to 14th February and although their main focus is England, they&#x27;re happy to get information from Scotland too.  It&#x27;s an opportunity to become a citizen scientist for a night and help monitor how dark our skies are by how many stars you can see.  Our session will cover how to go about counting the stars for this project!  It&#x27;s a lockdown friendly activity that can be done from your garden or window.</p>
