Explore the Stars

Friday (tonight!) and Saturday night this weekend you can Explore the Stars from Palomar Mountain. Explore the Stars is a free program for observing the wonders of the night sky from the National Forest Service's Observatory Campground (Its not at the observatory, just named for us).
It is a great program, usually held monthly from April through October. Click here for the full list of dates for the year.

Scott,
Just to follow up on your post, Explore the Stars went very well. The turn-out, of telescopes and visitors, exceeded expectations for April.

We didn't have a presentation at the amphitheatre this time, though there was enough interest for one. Next month (May 16th), I'll be doing the presention. If I can locate a projector and laptop, I'll do a presention based on the program I developed here:
