Join us for a free sky observing night with the Amateur Astronomers Assoc. of Princeton! Offered May 8 at 7:15 pm and May 15 at 7:30 pm. We start at the NJ State Museum with an extended star talk in the Planetarium. We’ll discuss what is visible in the night sky that evening, with an extra focus on deep sky objects that are observable with telescopes. After the star talk ends (around 8:30 pm), we’ll drive to Washington Crossing State Park, where the AAAP has the Simpson Observatory. We’ll use the historic telescopes maintained by the club to view the objects we discussed at the Planetarium. If viewing conditions are poor we will stay at the Museum for a free showing of “One Sky Project.”
