Guest TonyC Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I am based in East Sussex, but travel to East Midlands to be with parents in Market harborough. I have recently moved back from Canada and am now looking to get back into Star gazing. I own a Meade, Lx 200 10", a mallincam, the Canon Dlsr 60a for astrophotography ... However, I am very much a novice and look forward to getting set up permanently with a observatory in my back garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweedledee Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Welcome to EMS Tony. I too used to have the same excellent scope. I'm now more interested in your Mallincam. Which model do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+RonC Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Hi Tony welcome, I agree with whoever said, "come back from Canada!" I thought it was a great place when we visited it a few years ago!! Anyway, welcome to EMS and the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawson Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) Welcome. If you are up in the East Midlands often keep an eye on various events which are astro-related such as the Nottingham University Public lectures (http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/physics/outreach/science-public-lectures.aspx) and Trent University have some lectures too and open up their observatory after the lecture (http://www.ntu.ac.uk/cels/outreach/Optical_observatory/Open_dome/) and also the Nottingham Astronomical Society has lectures and a 24" telescope they are trying to get used more often (http://nottinghamastro.org.uk/). There will probably be similar societies and events on the South Coast, it's just a case of hunting for them; many will be advertised in the Sky at Night magazine and in Astronomy Now.
