Astronomy

 
 

In 2016, Chaos received a grant from the Alumni Foundation to buy a refractor telescope. The Skywatcher Evostar 80ED DS-Pro (with HEQ5 Pro GoTo mount) that was purchased is excellent for viewing planets, the Moon and Sun, and can even be used for deep-sky objects such as nebulae and galaxies.

I will be running astronomy events throughout the year (weather permitting!) in the Royal Fort Gardens and on the Downs. These are usually arranged on the day, so make sure you follow the astronomy Instagram account to be kept up to date (the main chaos page won’t have this information!): @chaos_astro
