Star Party in Hauke Park South

Join the Mill Valley Public Library and Marin Stargazers for a night of stargazing in Hauke Park South! Peek through the library's circulating Orion Starblast 4.5 inch reflector telescope, our StarSense Explorer telescope, and telescopes provided by Marin Stargazers volunteers. Telescopes will be set up for your viewing pleasure as we explore the stunning craters, mountains and ancient lava flows on the Moon. We'll learn about the constellations including Cygnus the Swan and Cassiopeia the Queen, as well as bright and colorful stars like Vega, Altair and Arcturus. And Saturn with its amazing rings will be rising as it nears its best viewing of the year. Dress warmly and bring your curiosity!

Feel free to park by the public restrooms at 1 Hamilton Drive, next to the police station. The telescopes will be set up in Hauke Park South, a few steps from the parking lot. Drop in anytime between 6:30-8:30pm (please note that the sun officially sets at 6:29).

All ages welcome. Registration recommended. Register for the event.
