The Quadrantid meteor shower peaks tonight. Look towards the Plough, with the radiant just below the handle. Best viewing is after midnight until sunrise, though a bright Moon may wash some out. Go outside, look up, and enjoy. Clear skies!

The maiden on the Moon is looking stunning tonight! Just happened to decide to spontaneously pop out and look, part of the Jura mountain range it looks like a lady with flowing hair sat on the rocks. All taken with iphone SE through 10” dobsonian.

We are really excited to be back at @TheRoyalLatin, doing a talk in their discovery building! It’s special to us as we were presented with an extraordinary person award a couple of years ago, so it’s great to be giving something back & helping inspire others to look up in wonder.
