STARGAZING WITH THE BRISBANE ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY Join us for an evening of stargazing on the hilltop skies at Maleny Golf Club. On hand will be the largest telescopes available to the public in Qld hosted by the Brisbane Astronomical Society. A rare night when all the visible planets and moon will be in the evening sky. There will be laser guided tours of the night sky to point out the key naked eye features of our Milky Way. On view this evening will be the core of the Milky Way galaxy overhead throughout the evening. Rarely seen Mercury and Venus will be on view just after sunset. It is also common to see man made satellites at this time of night, and we will point those out with the lasers. June and July will be the best time in 2018 to see Jupiter and its moons and Saturn with its magnificent rings can be easily seen through the telescopes. This is the closest approach that Mars has made to the Earth in the last 20 years, so staying around till a bit later will be well worth the effort.
