See the Stars at Gingin

On our way to Shark Bay we passed the outskirts of Gingin and saw the signs for the observatory and the Gravity Discovery centre which sounded fascinating but obviously we didn't get a chance to stop.

But we may well go along to one of these events!

Gingin Observatory and the Gravity Discovery Centre are going to be hosting some events during May and June in celebration of the next steps in the preparation for human exploration of Mars.

Gingin Observatory and the Mars Society Australia Inc (MSA) are presenting a special night on the Phoenix Lander and will report mission updates on May 31. There's also a "bring your own telescope" class (this is definitely one for my husband who has a telescope and can only find the moon with it!) and learn the basic techniques of telescope use on Thursday 15 May or Sunday 15 June.

For more information or to get a full list of events, visit the Gingin Observatory website or email the Observatory .
