Faulkes Telescope at Going Nova 2007

The images below were captured using the Faulkes Telescope North at the second Going Nova Festival, which was held in
Horizon Scotland, the Science and Technology Innovation Centre
at the Business Park in Forres in the north of Scotland.
The event ran from Thursday 22nd March 2007 until Saturday 24th March.

The Faulkes Telescope team at Going Nova would like to thank Edward Gomez from the Faulkes Telescope Centre,
and Maarten de Vries and Howie Firth, the directors of Going Nova for giving us the chance to use this astonishing telescope.
