Night Sky
Date: May 11, 2024
Time: 8:30 PM Utah Time - 10:30 PM Utah Time
Celebrate natural darkness by joining amateur astronomy interpreters from Kanab’s Stellar Vista Observatory for an evening observing the stars, planets, and Earth’s thin waxing crescent Moon inside the Winter Hexagon! We’ll begin with a conversation about the wise use of light at night, followed by a laser constellation tour and spectacular views of deep sky objects at the eyepiece of SVO’s powerful telescopes.
