Parties
Download a star chart for Santa Barbara tonight! Every month, the Museum offers public observations at the Museum's Palmer Observatory. These Star Parties are hosted by members of the Santa Barbara Astronomical Unit, who provide telescopes and their expert knowledge of the night sky. Admission: Members FREE; non-members $2.00/adult, $1.00/child Next Star Party: Saturday, May 10 8:30-10:00 PM Spring is the perfect time for star watching – warm evenings and great skies! We’ll be able to see three planets – Mercury, Mars and Saturn. While all are visible to the naked eye, the rings of Saturn and the surface of Mars are breathtaking when viewed through high-powered telescopes. In addition, we’ll be viewing double stars, galaxies and more. We'll also provide hands-on demonstrations, make-and-take crafts, and astronomy experts to answer your questions. And don't miss our Evening Exclusives in the planetarium that night! |
