Comet 17P/Holmes


Kessingland Astronomy Group Project (K.A.G.P)

Lyra and Kag hope to establish a community observatory in the grounds of Kessingland Community Center now we have complete backing from the playing fields commitee as well as the Parish council, we hope to improve the area and put in a small nature reserve with hopeful backing from the community, businesses and schools as a whole and company funding from Adnams or other companies within the area-I hope within the next few months or into next year 2008 we can make some progress on establishing this project to go ahead-we may also approach pparc on funding as well.
