VARIOUS NIGHTS THIS MONTH- Burbank
The Burbank Sidewalk Astronomers are hosting another Star Party, tonight in Burbank. The Burbank Sidewalk Astronomers host these nights several times a month. The event is open to the public, and people of all ages are welcome to come out to enjoy the spectacle.
The Sidewalk Astronomers usually have several telescopes set up, each pointed at a different part of the sky. They are happy to answer questions and guide visitors through the process of using the telescopes. Many people have never looked through a telescope before, and they were amazed at the detail they can see in the stars and planets.
One of the highlights of the evening is the chance to see a real planet like Mars Saturn, or Jupiter and its four largest moons. Each night the show is a bit different.
One of the most popular attractions to see through the scopes is the Orion Nebula. The nebula is a vast cloud of gas and dust that is home to many young stars. Many nights visitors can see the bright colors of the nebula and the stars that were forming inside it.
Throughout the evening, the Sidewalk Astronomers will give talks about astronomy and space exploration. They discuss the latest discoveries in astronomy and answer questions from the audience. Come out and see for yourself.
