About the event

Plus Night - Spring

Get something extra beyond standard viewing: sky tours, physical science demos, “birth” stars and a marshmallow roast. Each Plus Night has a unique theme. Binoculars recommended

HIGHLAND ROAD PARK OBSERVATORY

Saturdays / Jan. 18 + Feb. 15 + March 15 + April 12 + July 12 / 7-10 p.m.

During Plus Nights and extra features are available to the public…

*The well-known marshmallow roast takes place at the campfire ring (weather-depending).
*Seven to ten of HRPO’s collection of over fifty physical science demonstrations will be on hand to perplex and amaze. Which demos will it be?
*An unaided eye sky tour takes place, showing the public major features of the sky for that month.
*Filters are inserted into the viewing mechanisms, to show patrons “hidden” details of the Moon, Mars and Jupiter (when they are available).
*Reveal your age, and be shown any “birth stars” in the sky at that time.
