Astronomy: The Snow Moon

Sunday, February 1, 2026

4:30 p.m.–5:30 p.m.

Winter is a prime season for stargazing. The cold air clears the night sky of clouds and creates ideal conditions for seeing the stars, planets, and other celestial highlights. Join the Urban Park Rangers and Freshkills Park educators to gaze at the night sky through a telescope and learn about February's Full Moon which is referred to as the "Snow Moon"
