Join us in the Planetarium for a special extended star talk at 6:15 pm. We’ll discuss what is visible in the night sky that evening, with an extra focus on deep sky objects that are observable with telescopes. After the star talk ends around 7:15 pm, we will drive to Washington Crossing State Park where the Amateur Astronomer’s Association of Princeton has the Simpson Observatory. There, we will use the historic telescopes maintained by the club to view the objects we discussed. In the event viewing conditions are poor we'll stay at the Planetarium for a free showing of our new show "Spark: The Universe in Us."
For directions to the Simpson Observatory go to https://princetonastronomy.org/public_nights.
Dress warmly, as it cools off significantly after sunset!
