So you might ask... What's a Starry Hill Star Party?
Imagine a warm August evening with the Milky Way glowing above the dome at Starry Hill as kids and adults
use telescopes outside to explore the treasures of the night sky. With the help of teenaged Star Guides, they find
star
clusters, nebulas, galaxies and more. Perhaps they spot Jupiter with its many moons or Saturn with its
grand rings. Shooting stars are seen streaking by. Some guests are inside the observatory engaged in
astrophotography
of a distant galaxy or exploding star.
This describes a Starry Hill Star Party!
