About this Event
What’s a shooting star? is there a difference between a meteor, a comet and an asteroid? Where do they all come from? Stow stargazers will share their perspective during this informative night on what are known as Near Earth Objects or NEOs, in the night sky.
The evening will also feature an exclusive guided walk through the reserve to view the night sky (weather permitting) with a chance try see some of the meteor shower which is peaking that week. Bring a rug or something to lie on and we’ll see if we can spot a few.
It’s not essential but feel free to bring binoculars and a red-light torch. Wrap up warm for your exclusive evening tour.
Stowstargazers brings people together to enjoy nature whilst experiencing the night sky. We have a passion for sharing knowledge and advice on all aspects of stargazing, learning together what is on show and giving tips for how to view the celestial sights. Michael of Stowstargazers has been an avid hobby astronomer ever since being captivated by the milky way as a child.
