The early days of spring experience a transition in the evening sky. Winter constellations such as Orion and Taurus gently bow down towards the western horizon, while such springtime constellations as Leo and Cancer rise in the east. This evening's program will take you on a tour of these constellations and others in between. Some of the celestial treasures hidden amongst these stars will be revealed, including galaxies, star clusters, and more.
Afterward, weather permitting, tour the evening sky through a large reflector telescope, taking in such sights as a delicate thin crescent moon dwelling among the stars of Taurus, the Pleiades star cluster, the Great Orion Nebula, perhaps a galaxy or two, and more.
