Planets Evening at Lunt Roman Fort - Coventry June 15th 2013

[Tim]

Hi All,

A group of local astronomers (Astronomy for Fun FB Group) have organised a planet viewing evening next Saturday, 15th June in Coventry.

We'll meet at 6pm at Lunt Roman Fort in Baginton, and enjoy some late solar viewing, then making way for Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn, all in a unique setting.

There will be a few setups available, but please feel free to bring yours along too.

I'll be there as it is literally a stone's throw (using a Roman catapult!) from my house, and it would be great to meet some more local astronomers. The fort charges £3 for admission.

If you are interested, please let us know here in this thread, thanks!

Looking forward to meeting a few of you

Are you still going ahead if the weather doesn't play ball Gary?

If so I'll likely pop down for a bit, but won't bring any gear.

Cheers
