Event Details

Join us (weather permitting) on Saturday, April 30 at 8:30 p.m at F.D.R. State Park.  We will be in the baseball field across the road from Liberty Pool. There will be a brief presentation by  Dr. Rosa Williams about objects in the Spring evening sky.  We will then move to telescopes set up around the field to view  “dark-sky objects”  like the open Beehive star cluster, the Whirlpool Galaxy, and the rising Great Hercules Globular Cluster.

Join the Columbus Coca-Cola Space Science Center staff for an evening of star talks, star maps, and night sky viewing. Bring a chair or blanket for sitting on grassy field. Meet at baseball field off Rte. 354, across from Liberty Bell Pool.
