The Moon- A different kind of view

A different kind of view. The Night sky!

On this day in 1969. We landed on the moon!

We did indeed, with ‘one small step’ earth made history on the 20th of July. Letting our minds wander to what can be seen in the expanse of space. 

With all our parks located in stunning locations which hold breathtaking views, there is one view that can easily be missed.

The one above us. The Night Sky!

The sky is such a beautiful sight, with spectacular light shows, glimpses of planets passing by, the expanse of twinkling stars and of course the moon itself. You will notice something new every time you simply look up.

Stargazing Top tips:

  1. Makes sure the moon full in a cloudless sky, so check the moon phases before you pick a spot or set up camp on your decked area.
  2. Bring a compass, makes constellations easier to spot! To cheat a little, there are lots of apps that can help you find a constellation
  3. Remember your camera as you will want to document the beauty of the night sky.
  4. Stargaze at all times of the year, the sky is constantly changing. Having your holiday lodge or static will make that a lot easier.

For those who are beginners at stargazing! The easiest star to find is Polaris or the north star. Heres How!

1. Find the Ursa Major (the plough or big dipper), you cant miss it, it looks like a saucepan.

2. Then follows its tail (or handle) parallel to the star and you will find Ursa Minor (little bear or little dipper) and there it will be.

Tada, you’ll know its the Polaris as its the brightest star in the collection.
