What is a supermoon? What causes the Moon’s phases and how are they described? What are some of the prominent features of the Moon? How did the Moon evolve? How are we learning more about the Moon?
For answers to these questions and more, the public is invited to join us for “International Observe the Moon Night” on Saturday, September 14 at 7 PM. This free event will be live at the Martz-Kohl Observatory and will not be Zoom streamed. It should be entertaining and educational for all ages. There will be opportunities for questions and answers during the demos and presentations as well as after. Door prizes include observatory swag and graphic novels from NASA, “First Woman on the Moon”. If the weather permits, viewing opportunities through our various telescopes will be available.
