SUMMARY:Stargazing at Alston Moor Golf Club
DESCRIPTION:Talk and stargazing opportunity at Alston Moor Golf Club – a truly dark site in the South Tyne Valley. This will be a double event in one evening: firstly there will be a stargazing event with inside talks and outside stargazing (with telescopes and binoculars); and secondly it is an opportunity to find out about exciting plans for a new observatory at the Golf Club. \nThere will also be a chance to discuss how the new observatory will be a first for Cumbria with a remotely opening and closing roof\, and a first for the north of England since it will mean it can be accessed remotely by amateur\, professional and educational observers. \nThe new observatory will be available for visitors to the North Pennines – the darkest mainland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). At other times it will be used for amateur stargazing\, deep space observing by professional astronomers and astrophotography sessions. The golf club committee is on board and the idea is to form a new astronomical society to look after the new facility. \nAimed at amateur astronomers over 18 years old and members of the Alston Moor community (including business owners). Email David Hymers (david@davidhymers.com) to secure your place and for payment details. \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22 #NPennDarkSkies \nSuitable for amateur astronomers over 18 years old and members of the Alston Moor community (including business owners) \nPre-booking essential via David Hymers – david@davidhymers.com

SUMMARY:Exploring our Milky Way
DESCRIPTION:The Milky Way is one of the most visually impactful objects observable in the night sky. To see it you must have inky black night skies (which we have) and no Moon in the\nsky – there’s no Moon tonight and so fingers crossed for clear skies! \nAt this time of year\, the Milky Way hangs high overhead\, and clearly visible are clusters of stars and dark nebulae that weave through the starfields of our home galaxy. Join the Grassholme Observatory team as we marvel at the visual beauty of them through our many telescopes. Observe different star colours and regions where new stars and planets are being forged. \nBring warm clothes – it can get chilly. \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22\n#NPennDarkSkies \nBook on the Grassholme Observatory website

SUMMARY:Stargazing Experience at High Force Waterfall
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a night under the stars\, at a very special place. High Force is the largest waterfall in the country\, and is an awesome spectacle at any time of the day. At night\, though\,\nit is a special place you will remember for the rest of your life. \nThe Star Safaris team will meet at the High Force Hotel\, for an indoor briefing and presentation\, before walking down to the waterfall together. On the way\, you will learn about the unique landscape and what makes it so special as a dark sky site. The skies above the waterfall are among the darkest in Europe\, and the surrounding cliffs ensure a truly dark experience. Your guide will light the waterfall up\, so you will be able to take selfies and other photographs with your phone. \nIf the sky is clear\, we will go dark as quickly as possible and start looking at the night sky. This will be done as a group experience\, by a guide\, with a laser pointer. Unlike observatory events\, you won’t spend your time queueing for a telescope. When conditions are especially clear\, we may use astronomy binoculars. \nYou will leave the event with a greater knowledge of the night sky\, and how to find key objects and constellations on your own. More than that\, though\, you will have spent some time in the dark at a spectacular natural location\, which is normally only accessible in daylight. \nUnfortunately\, because of limited space at the location\, do not bring camera tripods\, or dogs. \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22\n#NPennDarkSkies \nNo minimum age – involves a 1.2km (round trip) walk on a gravel path. Contact Star Safaris for details (via https://www.starsafaris.com/site/contact). See https://www.starsafaris.com/highforce for details on the VIP ticket. Ideal for novice astronomers

SUMMARY:Carrshield Skywatch
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a journey from the start to the end of time – at this atmospheric venue in the West Allen Valley. Your host for the event is local astronomer\, astrophotographer and science communicator – Andy Gray. \nAfter we have settled in Andy Gray will talk about how telescopes have changed our view of the universe and humanities position within it – ‘From Lippershey to the James Webb Telescope’. Our ability to see into space and into the past has changed our view of our place from being at the centre\, to being almost insignificant\, and possibly even alone in the vastness. We will look at how this happened from the very first telescopes\, looking at visible light\, up to the most recent telescopes which can observe and image at almost all the wavelengths of light. This has enabled us to learn a great deal of how stars and galaxies form\, grow and die. We will be able to see how the universe looked just after the big bang and what the end of the universe might be. \nFollowing Andy’s talk we will\, sky conditions allowing\, do some live stargazing – using telescopes and astronomy binoculars. \nWear wellies/boots and bring warm and waterproof clothing. You will need a torch too (ideally red light). Light refreshments are included. Suitable for ages 10+. No dogs. \nCarrshield Village Hall is part of the old Barney Craig Mineshop almost at the head of the West Allen Valley. The upper floor of the building has been converted into Carrshield Camping Barn – if you fancy making a night of it why not book a room? See www.carrshieldcampingbarn.co.uk for details and availability. \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22 #NPennDarkSkies \nAdults: £15\nConcessions: £10 (under 18s\, over 65+)\nFamilies: £35\nSuitable for ages 10+

SUMMARY:The Plotters' Forest Milky Way shoot
DESCRIPTION:Exclusive access to a new attraction\, and dark sky site. Before we start\, yes that is a sky replacement edit. Of course it is! The Plotters’ Forest is a brand new attraction\, and no-one has been given photography or night access… until now. This is a one-off\, due to costs and availability\, so if you want to be one of the few with night shots from the Plotters’ Forest\, you need to reserve your place now. This workshop is timed perfectly for best visibility of the Milky Way\, conditions permitting\, of course! \nAll ability levels are welcome\, from absolute beginners and people who have dabbled with night photography\, to more experienced photographers. \nThe workshop also includes access to the entire castle grounds. So when you have finished in the forest\, you can get more iconic shots from the front of the castle\, or the ponds. \nThe beauty of taking photographs at night is that you start with a blank canvas\, and don’t have to allow for daylight. You can either shoot in available light\, or add your own with a torch (don’t worry we will show you how to do this). Cost £53 \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22\n#NPennDarkSkies \nPre-booking essential via https://www.photographyexperiences.com/plottersforest231022

SUMMARY:The Plotters' Forest stargazing
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a night under the stars\, at this fabulous location. The Plotters’ Forest is the new treetop development at Raby Castle and\, for one night only\, Star Safaris have got access to the stargazing platform. The skies above Raby Castle are extremely dark\, and the Milky Way is clearly visible overhead\, like a rainbow of stars. \nYour Star Safaris guide will meet you in the car park\, before heading to the Yurt Café\, for an indoor briefing and presentation\, before walking down to the forest together. If the sky is clear\, you will start the outdoor session on the stargazing platform\, using high-tech smart telescopes\, which you can look through on your phone. You can even take photographs of what we’re looking at! You will also get a tour of the night sky\, from a guide with a laser pointer. \nYour guide will also show you how to use stargazing apps\, and will let you know which free ones to install\, before the event\, if that interests you. You will also be given a printed star chart for the month of the event\, which you can take home\, to help you remember what you have seen. Unfortunately\, because of limited space at the location don’t bring camera tripods\, or dogs. \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22\n#NPennDarkSkies \nNo minimum age – involves a walk around the Plotters’ Forest.

SUMMARY:Exploring our Milky Way
DESCRIPTION:The Milky Way is one of the most visually impactful objects observable in the night sky. To see it you must have inky black night skies (which we have) and no Moon in the\nsky – there’s no Moon tonight and so fingers crossed for clear skies! \nAt this time of year\, the Milky Way hangs high overhead\, and clearly visible are clusters of stars and dark nebulae that weave through the starfields of our home galaxy. Join the Grassholme Observatory team as we marvel at the visual beauty of them through our many telescopes. Observe different star colours and regions where new stars and planets are being forged. \nBring warm clothes – it can get chilly. \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22\n#NPennDarkSkies \nBook on the Grassholme Observatory website

SUMMARY:The dark side of the universe
DESCRIPTION:Ever wondered what’s out there? Dr. Pete Edwards\, Director of Science Outreach at Durham University will guide you through! Tickets from £10 \n\n\n\n\n\nMost of our universe is missing! When we look into the night sky we realise there is much more out there than meets the eye. Our universe is filled with mysterious dark matter\, whose gravity provides the cosmic glue that holds it all together\, and dark energy\, which is slowly tearing the universe apart. It seems that darkness rules. But what is this dark stuff? How do we know it is there? What does it do? Durham University lecturer Dr. Peter Edwards will provide some answers. After the talk\, you’ll do some stargazing (sky conditions permitting) in the Observatory. \nWrap up warm and bring a red light torch (if you have one). Access to the North Pennines Observatory is via a steep access road and has limited space for parking – please park considerately in the village and walk up or call to reserve a parking space. Warm drinks provided. \nThis event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22 #NPennDarkSkies \nPrices: \n£10 + booking fee for concessions \n£15 + booking fee general admission \n£40 + booking fee family (2 adults\, 2 children) \n\nBooking essential https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-dark-side-of-the-universe-tickets-405140304557
