The fall sky abounds with legends of monsters, heroes, maidens and flying horses – and glitters with distant stellar jewels visible only through a telescope. We’ll check out Saturn’s rings (edge-on to the earth right now) and maybe Uranus and Neptune, a supernova remnant, a couple nearby galaxies, and throw in a nebula or star cluster or two (or three?) Be prepared to have your mind blown.

Program will be canceled if there is 50% cloud cover or more at the starting time. Bring warm clothes and gloves, and a red flashlight just in case, but we won’t need it.

Where to meet: The event will be held at Joder Ranch, a few miles north of Boulder. Directions will be supplied when you register.
