Astronomy at Stonehaugh - Origins of the Universe

This evening is intended as a gentle introduction to all things astronomical. An opportunity to ask those big far reaching questions that have always puzzled you.

You’ll enjoy a specialist talk all about The Universe.

How did it all begin?

When did it all begin?

Will it ever end?

Humans have sought for the answers to all of these questions, striving to fathom the mysteries of the stars and other bodies that lie within the unverse and ultimately, how the universe will end.

Join us as we journey through space and time, out into the cosmos, as we share some of the mysteries our universe has to offer. From our solar system to the large-scale structure of the universe and back to the Big Bang, we will explore our current perceptions of it all and the important discoveries made along the way.

Be warned, you’ll probably go home with more questions than you arrived with.

If the skies are clear we will observe using our wide aperture telescopes, such things as the planets, nebula, star clusters and more.

Please be aware our events are an astronomical presentation with observing if weather permits.

Unfortunately we cannot control the weather, but our events go ahead regardless.

When observing is possible, temperatures can be severe and the ground underfoot can be soft and wet, to ensure your own comfort, please wear suitable attire.
