Here’s an opportunity to watch stars and planets at nightfall at a site near Mumbai that offers a fun mix of astronomy and camping

An earlier session of star-gazing hosted by the organiser
Travel platform Adventure Geek that specialises in star-gazing and other experiences has found the perfect time for aspiring stargazers to look in the skies and spot stars and the planets. People have the chance to catch a glimpse of the Milky Way galaxy, Venus, Jupiter and its moons, and Saturn and its rings. The campsite is located at a secluded spot in Saphale that is accessible by private vehicles. The event hopes to be an ideal combination of camping and astronomy. “We have seen a lot of families come in for these events. The general curiosity in children takes flight and we are more than happy to provide them with a chance to experience one of the more fascinating aspects of the universe,” says Vinay Gupta, founder of the group. They have been conducting this trip for almost five years now.
