Our Vanishing Night
Time: 7:30 PM
Location: Morehead Planetarium and Science Center
Description: During this program, we'll use the Zeiss VI star projector to reveal how light pollution — the illumination of Earth's atmosphere by outdoor lighting — dims the thousands of stars and other celestial objects found in a natural dark sky. Following the Star Theater presentation, join us for a short walking tour to consider how lighting can be designed to improve visibility and safety, while also minimizing light pollution and energy use. Back at the Morehead sundial, telescopes will be active. Be sure to check out Saturn.
