For our main talk for this evening, Nick will be demonstrating Skytools 4 – Planning software that few astronomers have heard of. Rather than end up looking at the same tired old Messiers you’ve seen multiple times, Skytools will access nearly every astronomical database out there and based on your location, your chosen observing time – now or in the future, what will look good through the equipment you own and the sky conditions at the time you want to observe, will plan a list of targets and in a sequence to observe them at their best. This is the only software that does this.
After the break, Dan’s 10 minute talk will be on the harsh realities of long term space travel
We meet at 19:00 for a 19:30 Kick-off.
