Share your knowledge or begin your stargazing adventure! Check out the stars and night objects with a telescope, away from the city lights and on the edge of the Mount Saint Francis Prairie. Once your eyes are properly dark-adapted, a clear sky with no prominent moon is a showy splendor with bright spots, voids, and intricate rivers of light. Depending on the time of year, a subtle band of smoky light constitutes the outline of our galaxy.
Meet at Mount Saint Francis, 3390 Windsor Avenue, in the parking lot behind Francis House. People of all ages are invited to attend; children should be accompanied by an adult. In case of inclement weather, the program will not be held.
Free-will donation only; RSVPs are required for attendance. Please RSVP online at shalomretreats.org or by calling 563.582.3592 by noon on Friday, September 18.
