It’s a disaster. Due to small class sizes, our weekly astronomy class on Wednesday evenings has been cancelled. The EU funding has been pulled and our stargazing has been stopped in its prime. Just as I was getting the hang of astral photography, too.Last Wednesday Alan took the class to Cefn Eglwysilan mountain up above the Pontypridd. From there the sky was a lot clearer than down in the valley with all its pollution and light pollution. This is a picture I took that day.
We’ll now have to make do with the monthly public lectures, although Cath is going to attend another of the University of Glamorgan’s community outreach courses that is held on Monday afternoons.

Hello
I would be interested to know under which EU project did the astronomy course fall under please? we are an astronomical society and would like to go through the beaurocracy of obtaining EU funding for similar courses.
Thanks and regards,

Contact the University of Glanorgan's CASE department. There's a link from my blog. Martin Griffiths or Allan Trow will be happy to help.
