Astronomy Night

Kylie from Hutt City Libraries

Join Adela Devarajan from the Wellington Astronomical Society and International Dark Sky Association for a look at the importance of preserving the night sky from its continued light pollution, for International Dark Sky Week.

Learn what we can do in our daily lives to reduce the pollution and preserve the night sky for all.

This talk will also introduce the work the International Dark Sky Association (IDA) does in NZ and across the world to protect our night skies, including a brief summary of dark sky places and accreditation process.

If the weather is clear (fingers crossed) we’ll head outside after the talk and look through telescopes provided by the Wellington Astronomical Society (WAS).
