Our latest Astronomy Night at Hutt City Libraries is on this Friday!

Lower Hutt War Memorial Library, 2 Queens Drive
Friday 5 April, 6:30pm

Light pollution is a worldwide problem, with the latest research showing impacts on human health & wildlife as well as masking our views of the universe we are part of.
We're in a period of rapid escalation of this issue, as we're changing the colour of light we're using as well as increasing the intensity of light pollution created.

In this talk Lee Mauger of the Martinborough Dark Sky Society will touch on the latest research on the impacts of light pollution and also talk about how the Wairarapa is looking to mitigate these problems through the creation of an International Dark Sky Reserve.

If the weather is clear we'll head outside after the talk and look through telescopes provided by the Wellington Astronomical Society. (Going by the forecast we might be trying out the telescopes indoors!)
