The Orkney Sky At Night (Orkney International Science Festival 2022)

Join Eric Walker for an hour of information about what to look for and how to recognise it. There are pictures, star maps, and a question & answer session.  'Easy Watching' and aimed at beginners.

Eric, who’s the chair of Highlands Astronomical Society, illustrates his talk with images taken from his own back-garden observatory and from the Orkney sky.
