Chiricahua National Monument Stargazing Event
October 26, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Stargazing to view amazing solar system and deep sky objects. You will see planets, nebulae, star clusters, double stars, and lots more. We will have several telescopes for public viewing. Observing location is either Faraway Ranch (just inside the entrance gate) or Echo Canyon Overlook (about 5 miles past the visitor center). Please try to use red light flashlights and minimize white light (to include cell phones) that will hinder your night vision.
A talk on astronomy will be at the campground Amphitheater just past the visitor center starting at 6 PM.
The Star Party will go from 6:30 – 8:30 PM at either Faraway Ranch or Echo Canyon overlook.
