Come celebrate the last night of summer and the beginning of our Autumn astronomy season beneath one of the last great dark sky sites in central NC! The evening begins with our "What's Up!" presentation at 6:30pm. This auditorium program provides information about what to look for that night and a little of the folklore associated with it. Then, take in the darkening view at the village as the Milky Way stretches high overhead, from horizon to horizon. Bring your telescope or binoculars to observe gas giant Saturn, or catch an amazing glimpse through one of the Site telescopes. Participants should dress for the weather and may wish to bring a red light to help them see in the darkness. Chairs and blankets welcome.
Participation is $4.00 per person, payable at the door; cash, Mastercard, or Visa.
