This Saturday night the moon will be at a waning crescent, and temperatures look to be lovely for a night of stargazing at the Joshua Tree Astronomy Art Theater.
Starting at 8PM and going until 11 – five seasoned astronomers will be scanning the night sky for star stories and tales of mythology. The spring and summer season has a multitude of celestial sites to see – Ursa Major, M51, The Sombrero and the Hercules Cluster are just a few of the many wonders you’ll be able to get a better glimpse at this Saturday.
The Joshua Tree Astronomy Arts Theater features a large screen for easy live viewing of the stars – but there will also be telescopes set up so you can go see it with your own eyes and chat with the astronomers behind the telescopes.
The night also features a musical engagement with Lee Scott and Art by the Black Hole Collection of Fine Art, and eclipse photos by Mitch Miller.
The Star Party is this Saturday, June 1st at 2601 Sunfair Road right – right inside the Joshua Tree Lake RV & Campground.
Gates open at 7:45 and the show starts at 8. It’s $10 at the door, and please leave your pets at home.
