February sees a return of darker skies earlier than the previous months and we are looking forward to getting back out and planning more night events. One event to look out for is the total lunar eclipse on 3 March. Although the actual totality of the eclipse isn’t until around midnight, we’re thinking of having an informal gathering to witness the event, and perhaps get some photos. Mars takes the spotlight as our Planet of the Month, so we’ll be shining a light on our red planetary neighbour and what we know about it. Meanwhile, we’re thinking about how to encourage more people to think about light pollution and how to reduce our light “footprint” so there’s some helpful hints in this month’s newsletter.
