Star Watch with Mike Lynch
Horse Camp
Make the stars your old friends as we watch the great celestial show in the skies over Southwestern Minnesota. We’ll have giant telescopes aimed at Jupiter, Saturn, star clusters, galaxies, and more. Live video telescopes will also be available. Get to know constellations like The Big Bear, Cygnus the Swan, Pegasus the Winged Horse, and others. Great constellation mythological stories will also be featured!
Mike Lynch is a retired WCCO meteorologist and has been hosting star watch parties and teaching astronomy classes since 1972. He also writes a weekly stargazing column for the St. Paul Pioneer Press and is the author of the book Stars, a Month by Month Tour of the Constellations. It will be available for purchase at a discount. Glow-in-the-dark star shirts will also be available for sale.
You’re invited to bring lawn chairs to make yourself comfy!
