Universe in the Park
591 days old
Time: 9:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Activities: Astronomy, Night event, Outdoor activity Location: Interstate SP
Universe in the Park is a popular outreach program of the UW-Madison Astronomy Department and is predicated on a very simple idea: the best environment in which to introduce the general public to astronomy is outside under dark skies. The UitP session begins with a 20-30 minute talk and slide presentation covering a broad view of astronomy and recent astronomical news. Following the presentation, a telescope is set up to view whatever astronomical objects are available. Question and answer period follows around the telescope. Meet at the Ice Age Center.
