Tonight's lesson: Visiting comets and asteroids
Our solar system is filled with comets and asteroids of various shapes and sizes. To learn more about these objects, astronomers have sent spacecrafts to land on both comets and asteroids! Join us to learn more about these missions, then come back to miSci on June 30th to celebrate Asteroid Day with us!
Night Sky Adventures are astronomy fun for the whole family! Educators from the Dudley Observatory, in conjunction with volunteers from the Albany Area Amateur Astronomers group, present astronomy lessons, planetarium shows and night sky viewing (weather depending). Amateur astronomers and families are invited to bring binoculars or telescopes. One or more telescopes will be provided for public use.
