Summer is the perfect time to learn about the night sky. In this program, an astronomer from Montgomery College will demonstrate how to find and identify summer constellations as well as how to use the stars for basic navigation. Perched on the lawn at our Woodend Sanctuary, participants will view visible solar system objects, star clusters, and nebulae through a telescope provided by the leader. You’ll leave with an enriched understanding of the science of astronomy, as well as the ability to locate, identify, and navigate by constellations and other celestial objects using your very own star map! Keep your fingers crossed for clear skies. REGISTER.
