Description:

The night sky has been visible more or less unchanged to human beings for millions of years. Each day it tells an amazing story about the Universe we live in, and much of that story can be observed with no more than your eyes, hands, and a clear view of the sky.

We'll meet at Playasophy camp and then walk out to some deep playa to get a non-polluted view. Any and all levels of astronomy experience are welcome: Newbie? We'll be happy to walk you through the basics. Astonomy professor? Please come teach us!

In the event of clouds or dust, we'll meet at camp and just geek out about how cool the Universe is, which is only slightly less fun. See you there!
