Hi all,
I'm looking for a guide who can lead a stargazing experience for a few hours the night of May 15, 16, or 17.
I've reached out to some astronomy organizations and haven't heard back, and the one guide who responded was not interested because it won't be a true dark sky...but my travel partner and I don't care! We just want to see some stars and have an expert point out constellations we don't typically get to see in NYC.
Any leads? Thanks in advance!
Have a search in the Moffat area of Scotland. It was the first Dark Sky town in Europe. lovely place to visit and somewhere I often stop for a break when driving down to England. https://www.visitscotland.com/info/towns-villages/moffat-p244851, you might find link or contacts for visitors on this link
where are you based in Scotland?
Try contacting the Dundee Observatory who may be able to help. They are open 4pm - 10pm and there are telescopes you can use to look at the stars. However sunset on the days you want to visit is 9.30pm, so it may not be dark enough to see many stars...
