Mount Shasta Stargazers Star Party

  • This event has passed.

April 17 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm

This will be our first star party of the season.  Although the weather will not be perfect, it would be a great opportunity for you to familiarize yourself with the location and catch glimpses of Jupiter and the Great Orion Nebula before they disappear.

The weather is predicted to be partially cloudy with temperatures in the low 50s, dropping to the mid-30s by midnight, so manage your expectations accordingly: http://www.astrospheric.com/?
