I had a great time with @BritAstro at #Astrofest on Sat. Lots of great engagement with our rotating penguin and the little 3d printed models of 67P we gave away to youngsters were a hit too. Here's the first of the observations we scheduled - more to come britastro.org/observations/i…

Got to see #Comet2023A3 😁 Light polluted observing site (seafront at Barry), but with good horizon. Nothing naked eye, or even with my phone, but success with the Seestar. That also meant it was really easy to show passers-by - loads of wows 😁 @BritAstro RAS Outreach

That's a fantastic process of the data Dave 😊 Its a great comet for our Comet Chasers πŸ”­β˜„οΈπŸ΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ schools to observe. The Las Cumbres Observatory Global Sky Partners 0.4m network telescopes provide a wide field of view - proof that the biggest telescope isn't always best for comet observing!
