Family Night Under the Stars
Family Night Under the Stars
Ventura County Astronomical Society hosts it's first Family Friendly Star Party of 2023 at the Moorpark College Observatory on Saturday, May 20, 2023 at 8 pm. Gates Open at 7. Please arrive early to get a priority ticket to enter the dome and look through the observatory's 6-inch Takahashi Telescope. Professor Hal Jandorf starts the evening at the open-air amphitheater with a preview of what's up. Then we move to the observation deck where VCAS members have dozens of telescopes set-up and ready to go. Those who have priority tickets will be called in groups of ten to enter the Dome, no more standing in line all night! Only 100 tickets will be given out and after that those who didn't get one will be called to line up, but only if time permits. This is a free event sponsored by the Moorpark College Foundation. Recommended for Children 6 and up. Please, no pets
