Farewell Stars of Winter, Welcome Stars of Spring


Tour the night sky of early April. We’ll start with an indoor
presentation, and then head outside to find both winter and spring
constellations, perhaps a satellite or two, and hopefully some close-ups of the
delicate crescent moon, lunar craters, Jupiter, distant star clusters and more,
all through the lenses of our volunteer-operated telescopes. Children must be
accompanied by an adult. Please register and pay for all attendees. Black
