Join The Discovery Center for our annual stargazing and astronomy night. We'll pull out the telescopes, spotscopes, binoculars, and skymaps to explore the night sky. With fall migration season approaching, did you know that birds have been found to use starlight to navigate their way? We'll take a look at exactly what they are seeing, point our telescopes and binoculars at fun nighttime objects, and maybe even see the Persieds meteor shower! Fun for the whole family, although little ones may struggle to stay up this late.
Bring your own equipment if you'd like!
