And here's the public consultation re closure of the Mills Observatory from the council, a consultation which is only running for a few weeks.

Browsing comments on save the Mills Observatory petition I noticed this gem. Exactly why the observatory must be saved.

Open to anyone, not just folk inside Dundee council area. https://www.change.org/p/mills-observatory-closure/c/850374430 #Astronomy #Space #Dundee #Scotland #MillsObservatory #PublicScience #Outreach #Culture
