25.01.2022 Observatory will open tonight. Starting at 630 and closing at 8. If possible plse arrive just before 630 so we can commence looking through the scopes shortly after 630. Observatory will be closed next week and the following two weeks.

23.01.2022 Weather is looking good. We will open tonight at 6:15 for a 6:30 start.

12.01.2022 After chatting with observatory club members, we have decided to make an early call to cancel tonight's night sky viewing, mostly due to potentially poor weather. We will open next week, weather permitting. Sorry for any inconvenience.

06.01.2022 At this stage, looking good to open. Clouds heading out to sea. From the forecast more bad weather on the way, but later on in the evening. Keep watching this page for updates. If we have more than 50% cloud cover we will not open.
