Mobile Earth + Space Observatory Star Party In-Person
Imagine research-grade telescopes, science museum exhibits and astronomer educators at the ready so you and your community can gaze at the stars. Astronomers guide visitors in the basics of astronomy and the use of telescopes as participants explore the night sky and learn how to find stars, planets and other celestial objects.
Hot cocoa and a night sky craft will be provided.
