Cheltenham Science Festival - Star Party Last Night

Although the weather did not look promising, for those that toughed it out we were finally able to view the Moon & Saturn, and take in Albireo, and even M13.

A short talk to the assembled throng at 9:30 was followed by observing at 10:15 - the cloud thickened and thinned through the evening, but in the end it was quite a successful night.

Much thanks goes to Cotswold ASer's: Kevin Taylor (who brought his 12" Light Bridge), Peter Burgess (with his ETX), Paul Wheat (Binoculars and tripod), and Derek Maskell & Rod Salisbury.
