Astronomy Day 2010 October 16, 2010

Make plans to attend Astronomy Day 2010 at the Houston Museum of Natural Science's George Observatory in Brazos Bend State Park. This annual free event is open to the public and includes activities for all ages. Festivities begin in the afternoon, but this event really comes to life after dark when the stars begin to shine. Dozens of telescopes including the extremely large professional research telescopes will be available to give everyone a chance to enjoy the delights of the night sky, which will include star clusters, planets and galaxies.
