Observing the South Solstice - In person
Friday 22st December 1.00pm - 2.230pm
Why do we still call this celestial event "Winter Solstice" in Apps?
It is time to change the nomenclature to reflect the global village we now live in.
Not everyone experiences Winter at the same time.
Here in the Southern Hemisphere we are experiencing Summer.
If you live at the equator you use the words wet or dry for the seasons??
Would you like to learn more about the South Solstice and how it happens, why we have seasons, equinoxes and how to find your way about the night sky?
It is time to change these terms.
If it is cloudy we can be inside for a talk and Q&A. Refreshments included.
