Newbie here...
I know this post is kinda last minute.

Anything special going on that night? Or is this another casual sky gazing session? What time you guys staying until anyway?

I'm staying in the East (Simei) so i'm really interested in tagging along if I'm free, if you guys don't mind , that is?

Just another question, how do i know exactly which group to look for? Anyone to contact in case i get 'lost'?

Hi,
Tampines (I think whole singapore) is very cloudy now and seem that it will remain cloudy tonight, so tonight Observation Session will be cancelled. :(
What time do you guys end the observation usually huh?
Normally, we try to observe at least once every week in Tampines... usually on Saturday night. The aim is to have a regular session, so that anyone interested in Astronomy can gather regularly and also to promote Astronomy. The session usually start at 21:00 after the flood light of swimming pool is off and will go on as long as the sky is clear and free of dew. I think the longest observation session we had is around 7 hours (21:00 - 04:00).

Hope to see you on our next observation session. :)

Have a nice day.
