Star Party - Astronomy Night

Come out with your friends or family for an evening  of fun under the moon, stars and planets!

Early in the evening we  will focus on a lovely 8-day moon. Craters and mountains along the terminator  are always a treat through our powerful telescopes.Later in the evening we will  explore the best star clusters and nebulae the summer constellations have to  offer. If you have never seen the moon or a shimmering star cluster through a  big telescope, this is your chance to be amazed.

These events are co-hosted  by local Astronomy buff, Michael Beckage.  If you have a telescope,  feel free to bring it to the star party. You don’t have to be an expert,  and it’s fun to share anything you know with someone else. The star  parties are great for kids of all ages and best of  all provide serious entertainment at an unbeatable price. (Free, that  is!)
