Explore a summer sky with us!

 

In Juneau our night skies turn light and the stars disappear. If you are heading south for a summer break, the night can be warm and the skies dark. What a great time to look up. 

What are the "summer constellations," and why are they called that? Which ones can you see? What night sky apps can be helpful in planning your nights? See what the sky looks like from across the globe. Learn some highlights of summer celestial events. All ages welcome.

If you are headed south, where to? Lower 48, Hawaii, Australia, Europe, Africa? Let us know before or at the show. Or just enjoy learning what’s up. Email us at mariedrakeplanetarium@gmail.com to request a location.
