Astronomy Club photos

I like this very much - we've been doing the phases of the Moon in astronomy club, and here are some interesting photos of our model.

 

 

I hope to run an observing session next week, if it ever stops raining!

Tonight's session is cancelled...

This is terrible news, but tonight's session is cancelled. As I write, the sky is overcast and raining. Stay tuned for a new opportunity as soo as I can find a date.

Tonight's session

The weather has not yet picked up, but I remain hopeful! I'll make a final announcement at 5.30 today, so please check in again there. DON'T FORGET! This all goes much more easily on twitter!!!

SpotTheStation 1-year renewal

Wow, has it been a year?

Your signup anniversary with Spot The Station is set to expire in 30 days. We hope you've enjoyed the chance to see an international crew of six traverse the sky at 17,500 miles/hr (28,000 km/hr).

To continue this service, please extend your alerts at the URL provided. If instead you would like to part company, no action is required. Your alert info will be consumed by reentry in 30 days.

Hope you continue to enjoy the ride!

Weds 29th rescheduled

With regret, the weds date will have to be moved due to unforeseen circumstances. I am naturally very sorry about this, but I hope that Tuesday 28th will be an acceptable alternative? 7.00pm - 9.00pm as before, all Bootham and ISSP students very welcome.

Please let me know if you can make it to this event.

Calling all astronomers at Bootham.

On Wednesday 29th January, I will be opening the observatory from 7pm until 9pm. As ever, this will be dependent on the weather, and as ever, please follow me on twitter @boothamshaw to get the latest updates on what we will be doing.

Parking will be available at the school for visitors, but it would be very helpful to know in advance if you are coming. You can tweet me, or email me at mike.shaw@boothamschool.com
