Imagine having all night to explore the universe with Australia's largest mobile telescope for public viewing under a blanket of stars away from city lights...
This is a unique opportunity to join a small group of like minded people and spend the night discovering amazing wonders hidden in the night sky. During a regular astronomy session the viewings are limited to what is available early in the night.
Having the telescopes set-up all night means you can see it all: outstanding views of Jupiter and Saturn, beautiful star clusters sparkling like diamonds and intriguing nebulas of many shapes and sizes.
You will also be among the selected few to have seen another galaxy first hand. There is something deeply awe inspiring in realising we are seeing light that has been traveling across the universe for millions of years..
Join us for an unforgettable night of cosmic exploration and experience wonder.
