SUMMARY:Skygazing on Talcott Mountain
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an unforgettable evening of stargazing at Talcott Mountain Science Center’s mountaintop campus!  You’ll begin your night with a guided constellation tour in our planetarium\, followed by outdoor telescope viewing under the stars. \nWith our powerful telescopes\, we’ll search for stars\, planets (including Mars)\, deep sky objects\, and more! \nBecause much of the program takes place outdoors\, please dress for the weather — anticipating cooler temperatures on the mountain than in the surrounding towns. This program is ideal for both astronomy enthusiasts and curious minds ages 4 and up (children must be accompanied by an adult). \nDon’t miss this chance to experience the night sky from one of Connecticut’s most scenic and inspiring vantage points! \n$25/Adults (Ages 14+)\n$15/Children (Under 14) \nPURCHASE TICKETS ONLINE\nIn the event of cancellation due to inclement weather\, we will contact the primary registrant via email and/or phone. (Please provide accurate contact information when registering.) Any cancellations or postponements will be decided no later than noon the day of the event. \nQuestions prior to the event? Contact Danielle Limata at 860.677.8571 or email dlimata@tmsc.org.
