Wednesday, April 22, 8:00PM – 10:00PM, Night Sky Program: “Lyrids Meteor Shower”
Do you like shooting stars? We do! Wednesday is the peak of the Lyrids Meteor Shower, the best shower of the spring season. Join us to learn about the science behind these celestial fireworks, then head outside to watch them streak overhead. We’ll have plenty of targets for our telescopes, too – planets, star clusters, and more – but you might be too busy watching the whole sky for meteors! Meet at the Visitor Center.
