Join us for an evening beneath one of the last great dark sky sites in the North Carolina piedmont! The event kicks off at 6pm with the presentation “What’s Up?” – an introduction to the planisphere, an overview of sights to be seen this evening, and some of the lore surrounding them. Site telescopes will be available, or bring your own, to observe the moon, Saturn, and Andromeda. Bring a lawn chair or blanket and be prepared to relax beneath the firmament, enjoying the view as we hunt for passing satellites and discuss visible constellations. Telescopes and binoculars are encouraged.
