Hello everyone,
We are planning for a Messier Marathon on 2025-04-03T18:30:00Z. This is not the primary weekend for the Messier Marathon internationally but we have chosen this date due to some practical considerations.
Since this is going to be a Messier Marathon and not a regular star party,
- Please do not register as a family unless your family member is also into visual astronomy.
- We will be limiting the number of astrophotographers to avoid any disturbances caused by lights.
- We may not be taking too many beginners this time as we will not be fully available for assistance with spotting objects during the event.
Please fill the form with as much details as possible. The venue will be disclosed to selected participants alone for the sake of privacy and safety. However, please be assured that the venue has clean restrooms and there are a couple of rooms where you can sleep/freshen up if needed. It is a safe place about 2 hours from Chennai.
As always, all costs will be split equally. This includes food, accommodation, snacks, etc. We expect it to be about 1000-1400 per head depending on our headcount.
