You’re invited to a Star Party! The Astronomical Society of the Desert will conduct “sky tours” and direct observations of the night sky through telescopes and giant binoculars at the Santa Rosa & San Jacinto Mountains National Monument Visitor Center.
This is a family event. Minors must be accompanied by parent or guardian. Registration begins 14 days prior to the event. Please note that overcast skies will cancel the event.
The Star Party is co-sponsored by Friends of the Desert Mountains. For more information call the National Monument Visitor Center at 760-862-9984, or visit the Astronomical Society’s website: www.astrorx.org.
