April Night Sky 2024 – Astronotes
April, is that you? Jaysus you’re lookin’ well!
That’s right, can you believe it, we’re already in April. March was a bit of a crazy one, with some days feeling like all the seasons had been rolled into one. We’re past that now, and from here on out we’re hoping for better weather, and some truly amazing night sky star gazing.
When going out stargazing this April, don’t forget to keep an eye on the weather. Don’t forget April showers bring May flowers! In Northern Ireland the weather can be unpredictable, but if you keep a good eye on your preferred weather apps and websites, it will give you a good idea of when is best to go out for some stargazing. Even the slightest bit of rain can hinder the lens of a telescope, so be careful and plan appropriately.
Moon
One of the best thing...
