The date for this event has been changed from Tuesday, July 1, to Wednesday, July 2, based on the weather forecast.

The Moon will be a little less than first quarter.  The Moon will be high in the south and easily visible.  At that phase, the terminator will create some dramatic shadows that will highlight the craters and mountains.  As it gets darker, Mars will be high in the southwest and Mercury will be low in the west.  In addition, Arcturus will be high in the southeast and Vega will be rising in the northeast.

This event will be weather permitting!  The posted ending time of 10 p.m. is approximate; we may end the event sooner or later that evening, depending on viewing and weather conditions.  Please note that the library itself closes at 9 p.m., and the library's restroom facilities will not be available after the library closes.
