SUMMARY:Public Perseids Watch Party
DESCRIPTION:Count meteors with us on this special August night and you’ll likely see dozens of “shooting stars.” This summer delight is part of the Perseids\, our best known meteor shower. But what causes it\, and why does it occur at the same time each year? Even more intriguing\, what prompted its source comet to shift from an expected collision course with Earth? Come learn about the friendly forces in our solar system and how they still give us brilliant fireworks every August\, albeit from a safer distance. \nThis special Perseids Meteor Shower Watch Party is designed as a full\, immersive experience. Begin the evening heading out to the observatory’s three main telescopes to explore planets\, star clusters\, and other summer night highlights. Telescope viewing will conclude at 11:00 PM\, after which we will turn our attention fully to the night sky\, reclining and watching meteors streak overhead as Perseid activity continues to build. \nParticipants are welcome to remain on the observatory grounds late into the night for meteor watching.  \nPlease note: Guests may stay on the grounds until the event concludes at 3:00 AM\, overnight camping is not permitted unless you have a separate reservation with Sugarloaf Ridge State Park. Space is limited to ensure a comfortable and engaging experience.  \nTicket OptionsTo accommodate different interests\, two ticket types are available:Full Experience Ticket includes telescope observing and late-night meteor watching.Entry time: 9:00 PM \nObserving and Meteor Watch Ticket includes late-night meteor watching only.Entry time: 10:30 PM \nRegister at rfo.simpletix.com
