Everyone is invited to come for our first-ever winter
astronomy program! See the night sky through telescopes as you’ve never seen it
before! Winter skies can be cold, but often give us the clearest, darkest
nights that are perfect for star-gazing. At the start of our program, the
planet Venus will be sitting near a crescent moon low in the western sky. As
they set, the area surrounding the constellation Orion will be rising high in
the east. No other section of the sky has as many bright stars, clusters, and
nebulae as this one. NOTE: We will have the parking lot lights turned OFF for
this event, so please be careful when driving in and walking about. Cloud date: Wednesday, January 29.
