Night Sky over Ison Springs Elementary 2012-12-13

13 December, 2012 (23:38) | Events, Outreach | By: tramakers

Frank and Theo went to Ison Springs Elementary in Sandy Springs to show the Night Sky to the students and parents as part of their Science Night. This STEM event was well attended and parents, teachers and students also learned a few things about our night sky. It was new moon, so they could not take a look at our close neighbor, but they observed the double star Alberio and learned which one of the stars burns a lot hotter than the the other. Jupiter and four of its moons also received a lot of Wows.
