Fri 15th and Sat 16th March 2013
The public are invited to participate in our Reading Science Week activities. We will be at the Museum of English Rural Life on the evenings of 15th and 16th March. There will be an indoor exhibition to demonstrate the work of the local amateur astronomers and some of the equipment used for observing and photography. Telescopes will be setup in the garden and if clear there will be observing of Jupiter and its satellites and a thin crescent Moon (better on 16th).
Amateur astronomers from, Reading, Newbury and Maidenhead societies will be present to manage the telescopes and there will be talks in a room nearby. The talks will be mainly by Scott Marley who is a professional science educator.
