EQDrive final impressions and a quick tour of our observatory site

We are lucky to have our observatory in the heart of a lovely little nature reserve on the Isle of Thanet, Kent UK. Thanet is technically an island but not really and incorporates Margate, Ramsgate and Broadstairs. The nature reserve is dressed in the browns and reds of autumn at the moment and is looking very photogenic, so I thought I'd take a short walk and show you around before talking about the EQDrive system that we've installed on the telescope in Thanet Observatory. This is where we hold our public observing sessions every month with Monkton Stargazers.
