Join Rice Northwest Museum of Rocks & Minerals for a special evening under the stars in partnership with the Rose City Astronomers. This free, family-friendly event offers a unique opportunity to explore the night sky and witness an almost total lunar eclipse.
Before sunset, guests can enjoy:
-
Hands-on astronomy activities for all ages
-
Informal presentations led by Rose City Astronomers
-
Opportunities to learn about the night sky before observing begins
As darkness falls, the evening continues with telescope viewing and guided stargazing led by experienced amateur astronomers. The highlight of the night will be the partial lunar eclipse, as the Earth’s shadow gradually moves across the Moon.
