Astronomy Night

with Sugar Creek Astronomical Society

We will begin with an indoor program about light pollution and how it impacts wildlife, presented by Kent Marts and Molly Ussery. Weather and cloud cover permitting, outdoor viewing will begin about 9 p.m. with good views for the constellation Scorpius, the Big Dipper, and several Messier (deep space) objects. Club members will bring high quality amateur telescopes for public viewing. Items you may wish to bring include a red light, binoculars, and a lawn chair. Reservations not required. Recommended for ages 8 and up.
