Thanks to all who came for the talk and live stargazing despite the poor weather! Moon was very hazy and no stars were spotted but at least there is no haze or PM2.5 to worry about this time!

Special thanks to James again for taking leave to support the event and poisoning us with his new light-weight GOTO toy.

Glad to see some faces behind singastro nicknames and catching up with my astro buddies. Had fun interacting with you guys and discussing about upcoming astro events.

Some pics from that night:











The next talk will be on the first Monday of the month (5 Aug) instead of the usual third. A good opportunity to get the public excited about stargazing in the upcoming super long August weekend.

Thanks for being so supportive of the talks! Was too busy during the SAFRA talk to catch up with you too.

Wife impressed with a telescope? What are you waiting for? Time to "poison"!
