The group meets once a month at the Spaceguard Centre for observing, or for lectures by guest speakers. Lecture subjects vary from meeting to meeting, but meetings start at 7.30 and take place on the second Friday of every month. 

The Next Meeting of the Marches Astronomy Group is:

Friday 13th March 2009

Speaker: Jay Tate

Subject:Finding Asteroids - Practicle session

How to find us:

The Spaceguard Centre is located at the former Powys Observatory that overlooks the town of Knighton in mid Wales.

The Centre is easily accessible from the main A4113 that passes through Knighton.  It is signed from the main road just east of the town.

There is a regular train service to Knighton, but it is a long walk from the station!  A taxi would be better.
