A bespoke experience that your guests will talk about for years to come. Spend time with NOVA team members who are studying the universe in depth and let us show your guests the awe inspiring sights that are simply hidden in our night sky, with the aid of high quality telescopes. During the event we will run a short (non-formal) captivating talk and discussion about what's blowing up in the world of space & astronomy - black holes, exoplanets, Mars exploration, what's next for human space exploration & more.
We always aim to capture some pictures of some objects that your group observes through the telescope on their phones but this can be time consuming if groups are particularly large.
All objects depend upon clear skies of <50-60% cloud coverage and some objects rise and set so will only be visible at certain times of year.
Cloud coverage is something we always have to contend with (especially in the UK), however if the evening is too cloudy for the telescopes then as a back up we will enthral your guests with inspiring and engaging discussions about space & astronomy, accompanied by stunning visuals that most people have never seen. Our NOVA team members ooze passion and enthusiasm for the world in which they work and it's not long before their infectious personalities spread throughout a group.
All events are assessed individually & we will talk through a package that suits your event best. Pricing is based on time required, location and group numbers. We also provide a secondary price in case the evening is too cloudy . We are currently able to provide enough telescopes that will cover a group of up to 30-40 people comfortably but aim to increase this number in the future as we invest in more and other high quality optical equipment.
