Workshop Saturday Star Party
Evening Telescope Viewing
Museum astronomer Sean O'Brien and local amateur astronomers bring out their high-power telescopes and share their knowledge of the night sky. Get away from the glare of city lights and see stars you never knew existed. Witness the thousands of stars that litter the dark night sky, and with the help of high-power optics, view nearby planets and stars up close.
Note:
• Please bring a red filter or brown paper bag to cover your flashlight.
• In case of clouds or rain, an amateur astronomer will lead a short alternate program.
