- Possible Dinner After Astronomy -

Astronomy requires at least partly clear skies, so if the weather forecast indicates Cloudy Skies or Rain then the entire event will need to be rescheduled again.

* No Alcohol in Sky Meadows Park *
* No Pets At All *
* Bring along a lawn chair or blanket-spread if you will need either *

At Sky Meadows, we'll join a public Astronomy event:

The event begins with a half-hour children’s “Junior Astronomer” program from 5 PM till 5:30 PM, followed by a discussion on the importance of dark skies and light conservation. Then a NASA Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL) Ambassador will present the latest news in astronomy.

Thereafter, get oriented to the celestial skies with a brief sky tour. Join Northern Virginia Astronomy Club members in viewing the night sky.
NOVAC members have advanced telescopes on site to view some of the galaxies, globular clusters, planets, stars. You can bring your telescope along to explore freely.

Any questions then please message me.
