Night Sky Viewing Stars and Planets

Friends of the Desert Mountains volunteer astronomers will be setting up their telescopes and are inviting you to stop by any time while they are there to view the ever-changing display of fascinating objects to see — stars, constellations, bright planets, moon and sometimes meteors.

This is a family friendly event. Minors must be accompanied by parent or guardian. Bring water and wear closed-toed shoes.

RSVP is required. Ticket reservations begin 14 days prior to the event.
