Sky’s the Limit Observatory and Nature Center in Twentynine Palms will hold a star party tonight from 5:30 to 9 p.m. December is a great time to view the night sky as several of the brightest constellations stand out against the rich star fields of the winter Milky Way. The observatory is located on Utah Trail, just north of the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park. Camping is not allowed at the observatory.
