Your night tour guide will lead you through a full night sky
Your night tour guide will lead you through a full night sky experience which will vary slightly throughout the year and lunar cycle. Most tours will engage from near to far starting with Earth's closest celestial neighbor - the Moon. We'll spend time viewing the Moon visually and electronically ensuring that everyone has hands-on time. Next we'll move deeper into the solar system with views of what ever planets are available during your tour. We'll then move to deep sky objects viewing nebula, star clusters and galaxies. The evening will have everyone saying WOW at least once. The tour will include an introduction to astro photography using a smart scope to demonstrate how world-class telescopes obtain such amazing images. NOTE: The start time will vary throughout the year but will normally begin about 1 hour after sunset. Roughly 6:30pm in Winter, 7:30 in Spring, 8:30 in Summer, 7:30 in Fall
