I thought Sin Hoe intentionally did not want to post the invitation publicly if not he would have done so previously. I might be wrong though.

Dear all,

Singastro is highly regard as a friendly, knowledgeable and helpful local amature astronomy group by many people. Therefore, it is importance to have the present of Singastro in the 37th iPhO Astronomy-Night, some of our member was assigned with important task too.

We have large group of overseas visitor as well as local students so we are looking for more Singastro scope owner to provide pleasant star gazing experience and good memories to them. You will help us to play host for the Astronomy Night.

If you have previous arrangement to the event (eg. Going with your school teacher), then abide to your arrangement. For other scope owner who willing to share your knowledge and the view throuht your scope, please contact me so that I can expend the invitation to you. Email me at

As I am teaching in a primary school, I know it would be not a strong reason for me to get time-off from my bosses to attend this secondary school/JC/higher institution event... I guess those in my profession will understand the difficulty of justification. The management is not obliged to accede to personal requests.

But if I am able to have some time (my own time after work) that evening (is it going to be held till night for obs?) I'll be around for a visit. I will not be bringing equipment if I'm coming straight from my school. If I go home first, I may bring my 80mm refractor and portal mount... but that will mean I'll have to come much later (at least 2 hours for me to travel to-and-fro).

Afterall, NIE/NTU is my alma mater and I'll support the event to be held there.

Hi Sinhoe

Is this event also open to the public? I ask because I have some friends who are keen to come.

Any Singastro member who want to share their knowledge and scope with the participant of iPhO. We are going there as Singastro Local Armature Astronomer to help Singapore playing host for the event, not a public star gazing session.

Don't worry, I am not using Singastro fund for any part of the event and you do not have to pay for anything.
