Astronomy: Autumn Sky

Friday, November 21, 2025

5:00 p.m.–6:00 p.m.

Join the Urban Park Rangers for a survey of the November night sky. Rangers will provide an overview of the science, history, and folklore of astronomy and our universe, followed by guided observations through telescopes and binoculars. Gaze into the infinite on the weekend of the year’s only micro new moon and try to catch some lingering meteors from the passing Leonids meteor shower.
