Join Lowell Observatory educators on October 27th at 8:00 pm PDT at the Giovale Open Deck Observatory (https://lowell.edu/godo) for Week 4 of the Mars opposition! During this guided, interactive, virtual viewing session, we’ll showcase some planned celestial objects through our 14″ PlaneWave CDK telescope, including Mars at its biggest and brightest! Then, we’ll let you choose which objects to see next via YouTube’s chat function. It’s stargazing, reimagined!
