ASTRONOMY OPEN NIGHT
Organised by Castle Point Astronomy Club, Southend Planetarium
and Hadleigh Park. If you've never been before, record your favourite
Saturday night shows to watch later and come along and see some REAL stars,
and planets, nebulae and galaxies too. The Members of the Castle Point
Astronomy Club will make available their telescopes and other equipment to
give you stunning views of objects in the night sky.
At Hadleigh Park, Chapel Lane, Hadleigh.
From 7.00pm to 9.00pm.
None of our telescopes are able to see through clouds
so it would be advisable to take a look at the sky before attending the Open
Night to avoid disappointment. Also check our website (link below) on the
day. If we decide to cancel it for any reason, we will post this on the
website and on Twitter, normally by 4.00pm.
Free admission but donations welcome (any monies raised
go towards Hadleigh Park and CPAC funds, to enhance future events). Please
note that there is a charge for car parking at Hadleigh Park.

Thank you for browsing this far. I hope you find the
site useful.
I’ll be adding a few extras to HELIX over
coming months but, for the time being, if you’d like to see what the
site looked like in October 2011, when it was hosted on a free platform known
as Beehive, then click here. If I
had the time, I would create an updated version of the old site but
involvement in other projects, such as the Hadleigh & Thundersley
Community Archive, currently precludes that happening.
