Emerging Astronomers - How does a telescope work? And let's look through one.
2025-11-17 19:00 - 20:00 (Pacific/Auckland) | Stardome Observatory & Planetarium, 670 Manukau Road, Epsom, Auckland, 1345
You might have seen or used a telescope, but how do they actually work?
This Monday, we will explore how telescope could make a dot in the sky look much more special like magic.
If the weather is good, we will run the EWB Zeiss telescope half way into the meeting and look at objects such as Saturn, Alpha Centauri, Tarantula nebula and more.
Hope to see you there!
