Primary School Astronomy Night

This morning I went to help my grandson put together a gyro toy kit I'd got him. He's an intelligent and curious 7 yo who has already shown an interest in the stars and planets - independent of Pop. And he's had few go's with my scope.

I was bloody chuffed when he handed me an invite to his primary school planetarium and telescope night Tuesday week. I'll take my 4'' refractor along. Being pretty new to the hobby. I was thinking the brightest SH stars, Eta Carinae, Tarantula, Orion Nebs and Ω Cen Cluster. I wonder if anyone can give some suggestions for other Bortle 5 viewable objects.


Chriis.
