When you look up in the night sky, what do you see? This class will make sure you know! In weekly sessions, guided by an expert instructor, learners will explore: - The constellations, how to find them, and how they got their names - How to use software programs like Stellarium and NASA’s Eyes to identify what’s in your night sky (and explore the cosmos on your own) - How to differentiate between stars, planets, meteors, and other night sky objects (including the International Space Station) - The phases of the moon, plus eclipses - How to use familiar stars and constellations to find directions The night sky is amazing to look at, but it’s even more amazing when you know what you’re seeing and how all the objects relate to each other. So let’s find out!
