A JOURNEY THROUGH THE NIGHT SKY AT BLYTH HALL is back! This was our sold-out summer event, and we would love to invite you on this exciting evening of night sky exploration in autumn.
Spend a magical autumn night under the stars at the historic Blyth Hall. This is a special evening dedicated to the night sky–a relaxed, late-night experience led by experts, Dr Sarah Crick, a Cambridge-trained astronomer and Outstanding-rated physics teacher who is also the founder of Just Good Science and Mission Astro; and Nova Stargazing Experiences led by Jordan Mansfield.
🕰️ EVENT BREAKDOWN
- 7.30pm Doors open. You'll be welcomed into Blyth Hall with hot drinks and refreshments
- 8pm-9pm You will be welcomed to join us for an astronomy talk conducted by Dr Sarah Crick
- TIME HOP - Come look back in time with us! In this talk, we will take the audience on an adventure through space and time! It will have you questioning where you are in the universe and looking at stars differently. It's perspective-changing stuff! We look at some of the patterns in the night sky, and zoom in on the Plough, a well-known asterism in the sky. In a cross-curricular twist, we look at light travel time and think about what was happening on Earth when the light left the stars in the Plough that we are receiving today. It's a space talk mixed with British history and inspirational talk to inspire big thinkers to ask big questions.
- 9pm-10.30pm After the talk, we will go outside where Jordan and his team from Nova Stargazing Experiences will guide you through a telescope-led tour of the night sky–planets, stars and constellations, seen up close through powerful telescopes
🔭 YOUR TICKET INCLUDES:
- Astronomy talk by expert Dr Sarah Crick from Just Good Science & Mission Astro

Whether you're a seasoned stargazer or simply curious, it's a wonderful way to experience the cosmos. Bring your friends and family, wrap up warm, and join us for a night to remember.
