Astronomy Night - Star Party

Come join our group of dedicated volunteer astronomers as we share our powerful telescopes with the public.  This month we will focus on a beautiful first quarter moon which will be perfectly placed for viewing. If you have never studied the surface of the moon through a powerful telescope, you are in for a treat! Later in the evening we will focus on some of the most impressive star clusters and nebulae the summer sky has to offer.

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!)
