The response for the light pollution event did not look good. However, this seemed to be a blessing in disguise.
Only about 30 people turned up. Other schools cannot make it due to other committments. Nevertheless, the event still went on.
Overall, the participants seemed to enjoy the whole event.
The star-gazing session was the most memorable as we got to see planets such as Saturn and Jupiter. We also saw Jupiter's moon, Titan and Earth's own moon. The sight of the Moon's crater was magnificent.
We also saw different types of stars.
Although the response was not as good as planned, it was still our first event and there are bound to be mistakes and the committee will learn from this event and make subsequent events a more successful one.
A big thank you to all those who turned up on 25 May !
