At night, the desert sky is lit by nearly innumerable celestial bodies. On Saturday, January 6, the “Sky’s the Limit” Observatory and Nature Center will host a star gazing event to celebrate these galaxies, star clusters, nebulas, constellations, and much more. This free public event begins at 5:45 p.m. and ends around 9 p.m. Guests may use the multiple telescopes provided, or you can bring your own. It is recommended that guests bring a chair and snacks, and to dress appropriately for our ever-changing desert weather. The Observatory is located at 9697 Utah Trail in Twentynine Palms. For more information, contact Steve Caron at 760-401-3004.
