Join local astronomer Neill Sanders from Go Stargazing on 29 October 7.30pm to 10pm for a laser-guided tour of the night skies above the North Pennines at the wonderful location of Birk Hatt Farm in Baldersdale.
Learn your way around the constellations and enjoy incredible views of the Moon, Jupiter and Saturn through a large telescope (weather permitting). Following our stargazing session and a break for hot chocolate there will be a talk on ‘The Search for Exoplanets’.
