About this Event
Join Essex Wildlife Trust, Andrew Green Director of the StarDome and our astronomy volunteers from Tiptree Star Gazers for an evening that will be truly out of this universe on Saturday 14 February.
The planetarium experience is one that people young and old alike will remember for many years. When the dome lights dim to a gasp from the audience you will see 3000 stars appear in a perfect night sky free from light pollution.
If the weather permits our astronomy volunteers will be manning scopes so that the night stars can be seen on the evening too. If it is too cloudy then they will give a talk.
