RSVP ISSP

The students who took part in the astronomy ISSP earlier this year are invited to respond to Annette Aylett's invitation to come for an observing session on the 11th June. If the weather is fine, we should be able to target Saturn's rings, the M13 globular cluster in Hercules and one or two other interesting objects. Detailed timings will be given out in Annette's invitation...
