Event

This is the museums annual space day event! We will have several school groups attending, so it’s a great time to share astronomy with a lot of children.
This years theme is “Space Rocks!”, which is all about meteors, asteroids, comets, and all kinds of space rocks. We will have a table inside for the club to set up. We will not have any solar viewing happening that day, but if you’d like to bring a telescope to show off and talk about, that would be great!
If anyone who photographs or tracks asteroids will be there, we would love for you to share pictures and talk about how we discover and follow asteroids around the solar system.
ALSO, if you plan on attending, please let me know ASAP. We will be providing all community partners with a free lunch from Pavlovs Cafe for the day! So we need a head count to make sure we set aside enough vouchers.
