Join us at MOAS as we celebrate the wonders of astronomy and the night sky for Florida’s most exciting star party, sponsored by FPL.Stop by MOAS for our Night Sky Festival as we peer through a wide variety of telescopes set up outside on the front entrance courtyard. We will enjoy the late winter and early spring sky as we observe Mercury, Jupiter, Leo, the Pleiades, the Orion Nebula, and much more. Throughout the evening, we will be performing live outdoor sky tours with green laser pointers, presenting astronomy programs in the Lohman Planetarium, and conducting hands-on activities around the Museum.
