Cockfosters, then, literally means the home of the chief or head forester. The modernist Tube station, part of the northern extension to the Piccadilly lined, was designed by Charles Holden and opened in 1933, is a key landmark as is the stately, Grade II-listed property [Trent Park](http://www.trentcountrypark.com/) which is located on a remnant of Enfield Chase. Trent Park dates back to the fourteenth century when it was a part of Enfield Chase, one of Henry IV’s hunting grounds. In 1777 George III leased the site to Sir Richard Jebb, his favourite doctor, as a reward for saving the life of the King’s younger brother, the then Duke of Gloucester. Jebb chose the name Trent, because it was in Trent, Italy, that the King’s brother had been saved.

But seriously - do you look up and marvel with insatiable curiosity at both the beauty and the wonder of the **universe?** How it began, our place in it, how life evolved and where else in the cosmos other non-microbial life might live (99% of stars have exoplanets orbiting - some similar to Earth )? And nah I didn't make it up - unless you live in hibernation or have zero idea about our greatest endeavours - you'll know **NASA really did find the best evidence to date of ancient life on Mars.** This follows scientific verification of the biological signatures of microbe life discovered on Venus a few years ago So we'll defo take a look at the red planet as well the majestic rings of **Saturn** and it's potential life harbouring moon, the international space station, Tau Ceti star with **2 Earth like planets** orbiting in the habitable zone, remnants of **supernova** witnessed by our early ancestors plus a range of other fascinating celestial wonderments (comets, star systems, **galaxies**) over drinks and engaging chats and banter this Sept fully hosted by me - a passionate amateur astronomer and former global Reuters journalist covering cutting edge big picture science related stories.

No doubt I'll hear the usual jokes we've all heard hundreds of times before! If those don't make you laugh, then my impersonation of Los Angeles ET will! 👽 **====Free Astronomy Club =====** Over the years we have enjoyed numerous social evenings of stargazing and thought provoking chatter with people of all ages and varying levels of astronomy knowledge - so complete beginners that are genuinely curious about the universe are very welcome. If you are just looking to meet generic randoms that you have nothing in common with / share passio**ns** then there are other groups that easily cater for that.

If you have your own telescope/binoculars feel free to bring along and I can help you setting it up if you're a newbie. **====ITINERARY=====** We will meet outside Camden Station. After a short wait for anyone delayed, I will escort everyone to our observation point in the park about 15-20 minutes walk away and brief you in terms of what to expect, observing etiquette, tips, equipment handling and take any questions you have - weather general or astronomy/cosmology related. **After Drinks:** on work nights - unless I have a important 9AM deadline for a client presentation or something - most of us usually head our way back to Camden for another drink till about 1am - yes even on a skool night. I will annouce the pub to all on the walk back. **===What Can You Expect To See (this time of year)? ====** * Orion Nebula * Jupiter and 4 moons * Meteors * Andromedia Galaxy * Saturn, rings & moon * Star clusters such as the Pleiades & Owl Cluster etc * International Space station fly by * Venus & Mercury * Binary & tripple star systems (think planet *Tatooine in* Starwars!), * Neptune * Uranuus * Mars * Our moon * A look towards the galactic centre where that supermassive £22b black hole sits (Sagittarius A) More here from Jodrell Bank Observatory/Astrophysics Centre: [http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/astronomy/nightsky/](http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/astronomy/nightsky/) Guide to viewing the cosmos for beginners: [https://phys.org/news/2018-05-universe-distant-starstips-cosmology-backyard.html#jCp](https://phys.org/news/2018-05-universe-distant-starstips-cosmology-backyard.html#jCp) **===Weather Dependent=====** The event is subject to clear skies forecasts on the night so if on the actual afternoon of the event the weather forecasts looks unsuitable beyond doubt then I will postpone so please check the event status on the day of the event . If this event is still listed here at 5PM on the day, it will be going ahead at the designated day and time! Happy Stargazing Lucas Skywalker (Amateur Musical Astronomer)

Workshop-The language of symbols: Nature, Art & the Pedagogy of Imagination
Sat, Sep 19, 9:45 AMThis is a paid event, tickets are available [here ](https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/workshop-the-language-of-symbols-nature-art-the-pedagogy-of-imagination-tickets-1998510048353)via Eventbrite. Symbols are a language we all recognise, but few of us can truly read. For thousands of years, symbols have been used to express the ineffable and to create a bridge between the invisible and visible dimensions. By learning to understand them better, we awaken and expand our imagination, which the philosopher, anthropologist and sociologist Gilbert Durand recognised as one of our most vital and transformative faculties. Ultimately, symbols have the power to re-connect us with a world full of meaning and re-enchant our lives. This is a philosophical workshop exploring the hidden meanings behind symbols in nature and art, as well as imagination according to Gilbert Durand. · **Part 1:** The symbolism of minerals, plants and animals, and how the natural world evokes inner images that can help us on our journey through life. · **Part 2:** How deeper psychological truths have been transmitted in works of art, and ways to rediscover these hidden layers through symbolic literacy and active viewing. · **Part 3:** The ‘pedagogy of imagination’ (Gilbert Durand) and how active engagement with symbols and myths is essential for both mental and cultural health. Admission: £40 (£25 concessions), light refreshments provided
