Stunning morning up on site today, come visit for a wander but wrap up warm! We had some monster machinery up on site today doing some work.
We hope you’re excited about tonight’s stargazing event at Crawick Multiverse, 7-9pm. The forecast is excellent, with clear skies predicted all night! http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2652056 As a result of the clear skies it will be very cold, possibly close to freezing, so make sure you wrap up warm, with plenty of layers, hats, gloves, thick socks etc. We also suggest you wear stout waterproof footwear (wellies are great, or walking boots) as some parts of the Multiverse are a little bit soggy after recent rain. And of course it will be dark, so bring a torch if you have one. (We have plenty, but you might feel safer using your own). Finally, if you have binoculars please feel free to bring them, as there are plenty of amazing binocular objects up there for us to explore. See you in a few hours! There are still places so book or you can pay at the site when you come up.

Looking for some Halloween Costume ideas - why not take inspiration from Crawick Multiverse and the solar system for an out-of-this-world costume? Here's some inspiration. http://thisisladyland.com/diy-space-costumes-get-ready-for-blastoff/
Look up over the next few nights for a chance to spot a shooting star, as part of the Orionids meteor shower. The peak of the shower occurs overnight between 21 and 22 October but the days on either side should see some activity too! If you want to maximise your chances of seeing some meteors then head somewhere dark, away from town and city lights, Crawick Multiverse is perfect for it. You don't need any special equipment - just use your eyes - but a reclining deck chair makes for a more comfortable experience, and saves you straining your neck. If you get clear, dark skies then you might be lucky enough to see a shooting star every ten minutes or so. The best time to head out meteorwatching is between midnight and dawn (sorry!).
Due to the weather we have unfortunately decided to cancel today's fun day, thank you to everyone who registered and showed an interest and hopefully we can reschedule something for another day.
Come and witness the most active and reliable meteor shower of the year – the Geminids – in a guided meteorwatching event at Crawick Multiverse, led by astronomer Steve Owens. Experience the dramatic landscapes on the Crawick Multiverse under dark skies, while gazing upwards to spot some spectacular shooting stars. Given clear skies and optimal conditions we may see as many as 60 meteors every hour – maybe even more! Book your tickets online today. Suitable for ages 8+. Please ensure that you are dressed appropriately, with stout waterproof footwear, and warm clothing. The event will begin promptly at 1900, leaving from the car park at the Crawick Multiverse. Please note that this event is weather dependent. In the event of foul weather you will be directed from there to an alternative venue for an illustrated astronomy talk, while we wait for the skies to clear.
