Stargazing in Autumn
Stargazing in Autumn is going to be wonderful! In the cool of the evenings, there is a lot to see in the sky!
Not everyone in the world can see the stunning Seven Sisters (or Pleiades)! It’s an open cluster of stars and you need a lovely dark night sky to see it! Use the crescent Moon as your guide on 15th March.
