ZWO SeeStar S50 - Workshop / Tutorial


Washington Wetlands Centre , Discovery Room

About this event :

Something a bit different for the July lecture night.
In recent years “Smart Telescopes” have arrived on the astronomy scene. Smart telescopes offer an automated way of doing astronomy and astrophotography, albeit at a quite expensive price.

If you have a Seestar S50, or are are thinking of getting one, or would like to know more about them, then this Sunday 20th July, 7pm at the wetlands is for you.
There is no lecture this Sunday. The academic world are on their summer break, therefore we will be holding a workshop on the Seestar50s.
Long time Seestar user and expert David Ettie will be sharing his knowledge on getting started, more advanced techniques and available accessories.

 

If your using a SeeStar S50 come and share your own experiences.

This event I’m sure, will be valuable to anyone thinking of buying a smart telescope, and fascinating to everyone interested in the future of amateur astronomy.

Hopefully see you all at the Wetlands Centre (Discovery Room) , possible Raffle & Refreshments as usual.
