Public Star Party: 1/30/2012, Murrieta Library, 6:00 pm

The Murrieta library is offering a star party on January 30, 2012. The event is free and open to the public.
The event begins at 6:00pm with a brief indoor presentation followed by star gazing in the courtyard. The event will end by 7:30. The presentation and telescopes are provided by the Temecula Valley Astronomers.

Weather permitting, the moon, Venus, Jupiter, the Orion nebula, and the Pleiades will be highlights. A show will be at 6:00 regardless of weather, so anyone making the trip will be treated to a science-oriented presentation suitable to elementary and middle school levels.

Thank you, Dave. If I were more organized, I would have had a post on the OCA event. Thank you for your kind words. It was a high point for me to visit your club.
