Great Starparty for East Newton Elementary

26 August, 2012 (12:26) | Uncategorized | By: tramakers

Eventhough it was very cloudy yesterday afternoon, about 79 attended the East Newton Elementary School’s Star Party at the Jon Wood Field at Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center. The clouds must have seen this, because a lot of them moved out. :-) This school did visit us in the spring and they liked it so much, they came back for more! They were rewarded with views of craters and mares on the moon as well as the “Straight Wall”, Saturn, Mars and Alberio. Thanks to Mrs Julie Thompson for requesting the event and to all the students and parents to come out, not to forget the 9 Charlie Elliott members for bringing their scopes out and let the group see the night sky
