100 Hours of Astronomy! Special Events on April 4, 2009

As part of the International Year of Astronomy, the Hundred Hours runs from April 2-5. On Saturday, April 4, the WAS is participating in three separate events for the public's enjoyment.

During the daytime, 1-5 PM, we will be offering solar observing and a presentation on the Man of Honor for the IYA2009, Galileo Galilei. More details here.

At night, you get your choice of two great events! A group of volunteers from four local clubs will be offering Sidewalk Astronomy at Metro Beach Metropark. More details here.

For our regularly scheduled open house, there will be a special program, with exhibits, presentations, and videos at the educational center next to Stargate. More details here.
