Night Sky Viewing ~ Niabi Zoo Parking Lot

Join us after sunset on July 19 for a tour of the summer night sky at the Niabi Zoo Parking Lot. The full Moon will dominate the night sky. Mercury and possibly Venus may be visible shortly after sunset for a brief time. We will also look for the Garnet Star, (very red super giant), M4 (Crab Globular Cluster) and many other objects, weather permitting. Knowledgeable club members will have telescopes including the PACMO (mobile observatory) set up. If you have a telescope bring it along and join us.

Please keep in mind restroom facilities are not available. Weather related updates will be posted on July 19 if needed. FREE & FAMILY FRIENDLY.
