Telescope Night

The ever-popular Telescope Night returns (weather permitting) to the Arroyo Seco Library on Tuesday, November 12.  We will begin at 6:00 and wrap things up shortly before the library closes at 8:00.  We should be able to see the Moon, Jupiter, and Saturn.  Mark your calendar and plan to drop by.  Do note that the event is weather dependent, so if there are clouds on the day give us a call after 3:00 for word on the status of the program.

For those who don’t know what Telescope Night is…  During Telescope Night a group of local astronomers, the Sidewalk Astronomers (http://www.sidewalkastronomers.us/), sets up telescopes outside the library and points them at objects of interest in the night sky.  Everyone is invited to take as many turns as they’d like looking through the telescopes.  The Sidewalk Astronomers are very knowledgeable and will answer your questions & chat about how they made the telescopes.  Bring your questions with you.
