Details
Astronomical star parties are gatherings where seasoned space enthusiasts or wide-eyed beginners come together to observe celestial objects such as stars, planets, and galaxies. Space For Us will provide shared telescopes, but participants with telescopes are encouraged to bring them out and share their knowledge, fostering a communal atmosphere for stargazing and astronomical appreciation. Star parties are more than just stargazing; they can be transformative experiences that ignite a cosmic perspective within every participant. This cosmic perspective is a profound overview of our place in the vast expanse of the universe.
Beverages by En Fuego Tulsa.
Red flashlights will be provided for optimal stargazing and observation!
Blankets and portable chairs are encouraged.
