Astronomy Night: Telescope 101
Want a telescope but don’t know what to get or how to use one?
We have an introductory session on this Friday with Antony Gomez (President of the Wellington Astronomical Society) that will give you the tools and knowledge to get started!
We'll be looking at different telescopes (reflective and refractive), types of lenses, how telescopes differ and what objects in the sky are best to look at. There will be telescopes on show if you want have a look at the different types. You are welcome to bring your own telescope along if you are having difficulty in using it.
War Memorial Library - Friday 12 October, 6:30pm
(The Wellington Astronomical Society will be here from 6pm setting up their telescopes.)
