Universe in the Park

Universe in the Park was great!

The amphitheatre was full with 73 people attending the high-energy presentation on Galaxies by Melissa and 21 taking part in the telescope viewing with Melissa and Allison afterward. A lot of great questions from people of all ages in the audience. A surprise bonus was seeing the international space station pass directly overhead while the telescopes were out. A park visitor with his own scope set up and 3 or 4 people were lucky enough to view the ISS through that before it passed out of site. Thank you to Jere and Anne Fluno for bringing UitP to Wildcat again!
