If you came to previous Open Nights when we are lucky to have CLEAR SKIES, then you will know that these nights can be great fun and very enjoyable!

Donations: The Open Nights are free. However, if you would like to make a donation, any monies raised go towards the Country Park, and CPAC funds, to enhance future events.

A Special Note about the Weather:
 
We all hope that we will be gifted with totally clear skies, but unfortunately, we cannot control nor are we responsible for the weather!
 
None of our telescopes are able to see through clouds. It will certainly be advisable to take a look at the sky before attending the Open Night to avoid disappointment.
 
If there are any clear patches in the clouds, then we will be observing what we can

The Open Nights are organised by the Castle Point Astronomy Club, Southend Planetarium and Hadleigh Castle Country Park.
