Star parties at Paramount Park
Thursday, February 4, 2010
The Seattle Astronomical Society sets up telescopes throughout the year for public viewing of the night sky. Locally, star parties are held at Paramount Park, NE 155th and 8th NE in Shoreline. Everyone is welcome to look through any of the instruments at whatever is in the sky that night. Wear warm clothes and bring a friend.
Paramount Park star parties usually occur on the Saturday closest to the first quarter moon, so there should always be at least one celestial object in the evening sky, Seattle weather permitting. If it is raining, or completely cloudy, don't come - otherwise, it is always worth a try.
Paramount Park dates for 2010 are all Saturdays. The next scheduled date is February 20, at 7 pm.
