Description

Join us on Saturday 9th October 2021 in a face-to-face meeting at Oakhill Village Hall, when one of our own members and accomplished astrophotographer Pete Richardson will demonstrate how he achieved his latest project: making 10" and 20" mirrors with a homemade grinding machine, and then building the telescopes from them! The sky at Oakhill is dark and wide, so if the weather is good we'll be able to do some observing together, maybe even with one of Pete's new telescopes.

Organiser

Wells and Mendip Astronomers believe Space is or Everyone! 

Our goal as an astronomy society is to engage with local astronomy and space enthusiasts to enjoy, share and develop their interests and skills. Our aims extend to increasing public awareness and outreach events at this very important time for science and space exploration through our programme of events, talks and star parties.

We would like to welcome anyone interested in astronomy; whether you are a  beginner or experienced astronomer - young or old. We will do our best to help, so please come and join us.
