SUMMARY:Get to Know the Summer Stars Over Schoodic (9/3)
DESCRIPTION:As darkness falls over the Schoodic Peninsula\, the Milky Way arches across the sky from horizon to horizon. Late summer's most prominent constellations are suspended within its pale glow. Amateur astronomer Richard Luecke will take you on an indoor 50-minute image-enhanced journey along that river of starlight and introduce you to summer's most prominent constellations. You'll learn to identify Perseus\, Cassiopeia and Andromeda\, Cygnus the Swan\, and Aquila\, Zeus's pet eagle. Your journey will end in the constellation Sagittarius\, which marks the heart of the Milky Way Galaxy. It glistens with star clusters and glowing clouds of interstellar gas that even our naked eyes can perceive in Schoodic's dark sky. We will meet in Moore Auditorium on Schoodic Institute's campus first. Weather permitting\, we'll venture outside for a green laser tour\, where you'll meet these sky wonders face-to-face and likely see a few flashing meteors! A large astronomical telescope will provide stunning views of the ET Cluster\, the Great Andromeda Galaxy\, the Dumbbell Nebula and more. Bring binoculars if you have them\, and dress warmer than you'd think necessary. $15 admission. Please register online at https://schoodicinstitute.org/event/summer-stars-over-schoodic/ Visit schoodicinstitute.org/events for additional Downeast Night Sky Festival events at Schoodic Institute\, offered between September 3rd-10th.
