*Cancelled - Staring at the Sun (Safely)

*Cancelled due to cloudy weather

Did you know you can stargaze during the day? Its true! But you can only see ONE star.

Using special telescopes we'll be zooming in to look at the sun closely without blinding our eyes. Details like sunspots and solar flares will be visible, and we'll talk about our current understanding of the sun, as well as some interesting theories!

After this program you'll have time to take a short hike, and get back just in time to join us at the Star Theater for our next stargazing program!

• DO NOT look at the sun without proper protection. We'll be using special filters and eclipse glasses to look directly at the sun safely.
