Magic moments

Just spent 5 minutes explaining occultations to Georgia who's 8 and then observing the Moon occulting 68 Ori.

Cars overtaking is a very effective analogy for small people!

Going, going, GONE!

Brilliant John, the younger you can inspire them with science the better.

Funnily enough we've just come back from a session setting up a new little astronomer (he's 6) with a small refractor.  Mike fluked upon the occultation - so we had to investigate!  I'm glad I came up with 68 Ori too!!  (Lots of WOWs from all family members all evening, so very enjoyable!)
