Wonders of the Universe
When: Sat, February 11, 7pm – 8pm
Where: Hemlock Crossing
Join members of the Shoreline Amateur Astronomical Association!
The Universe is a vast, infinite place.
Is our Sun the only star with planets around it?
Modern technology has allowed astronomers to discover that other stars have planets orbiting them.
What are these planets like? Come and hear about exoplanets and more.
This program will be held rain, snow, or shine (as long as road and weather conditions are safe).

There will be a viewing session after. (weather permitting)
For the outdoor viewing, telescopes will be provided, or you may bring your own.
Bring a lawn chair and binoculars (if you have them). There are no fees and advanced registration is not required. The program and viewing are for adults and older children.
