Pub Night Under the Stars: The Summer Milky Way
Friday, August 7
7:00 - 9:00 p.m.
The summer Milky Way holds many hidden treasures – star-forming clouds, star clusters, exploding stars. Join Planetarium Educator Nick Rae as we explore these beautiful gems using humanity’s best telescopes, and in the process learn about the cycles of star birth and star death. Everything we see will relate back to the view we have from our own location here in the galaxy.
Your evening will also include a tour of the night sky, the latest images from the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescope, and a flight to the edge of space and back.
Each guest receives an individual snack box featuring, cheese, pretzels, fruit, nuts & more; up to three servings of beer, seltzer or soda; and an entertaining evening under the stars.
Doors open at 6:50 PM
The program will be in two parts, allowing time to socialize and get more refreshments between shows.
$45 Members | $55 Others
