About this trip

Far from city light the Milky Way is visible to the eye. Priya brings three telescopes and a laser pointer, and shows planets, double stars and the Andromeda galaxy in turn. Dress warmly: it is cold even in July, and tea and blankets are on us.

Worth every dollar. We saw things we would never have found alone.
