Enjoy a free public stargazing event at the Montgomery Hill Observatory from 8:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. View the skies at our observatory with several telescopes set out for the public. Perfect for kids to learn how to use telescopes! We will be projecting images collected from our main telescope as well as from our Enhance Vision telescope as well.
The Spring Triangle(s)
As we move into the spring, let's see if we can spot the spring triangle. The spring triangle is made up of 3 bright stars forming a large structure in the sky. These stars are Arcturus, Spica, and Regulus. As a bonus, a smaller triangle can be made using the star Denebola instead of regulus. We will also have Jupiter very bright shining overhead.
Many stories have been inspired by these celestial objects over centuries, and as we study the night sky, we continue to get inspired today. I hope you can join us so we can get inspired together as a community and investigate the beauty of the night sky.
Parking: Free Parking after 6 p.m. in parking lot 9A
