Deep Sky Tour of the Milky Way

Stars are born, live for eons, and explode in a colorful display of gas & light.  Find out more at Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary

Stretching high overhead at this time of the year once the sun has fully set and darkness has settled in, from vantage points far removed from light-polluted city skies, is the starry river we call the Milky Way. In the indoor portion of this evening's program, we will go on a photographic tour of the celestial jewels strewn within its starry fields that are best viewed through a telescope. Such so-called deep sky objects include star clusters, stellar nurseries, supernova remnants, and more. Presented by physicist Gary Meehan

If weather permits, we will step outside into the crisp fall air afterwards to sample the Milky Way through telescopes operated by local amateur astronomers. 

  • For kids ages 10-18
  • Meets in the Barn
  • Indoor portion of the program is rain, clouds or star shine
  • Dress appropriately for the outdoor portion of the program
