Set your sights on the stars! Our Spring Stargazing event is now happening on Saturday, May 18th, from 6 PM to 11 PM. While meteor showers might not grace the skies above for us in May, the hopeful clarity of the night promises its own unique magic, ideal for stargazing.
In partnership with the University of Tennessee Physics Department, we warmly invite you to a tranquil evening of cosmic discovery and wondrous stargazing. An open sky full of stars awaits us, offering a peaceful retreat, especially after the rush of finals week.
Engage with graduate students from the Physics Department as they illuminate our understanding of the vast universe, from the intricate orbits of planets to the latest strides in astrophysics. Their expert talks and equipment they bring along are sure to enhance your experience as we all look up in wonder.
Remember to bring along your telescope, a comfortable chair, or a blanket to cozy up for the night. Admission is completely free, and while RSVPs on Zeffy are not required, they help us prepare for the number of guests to expect.
Update your calendars and plan to join us for this rescheduled stargazing journey!
