Stargazing @ CalTech
Stargazing @ CalTech
During my time at Caltech, the Astronomy Department provided a short 30 minute public lecture about different topics within astronomy once a month. Following the lecture is 90 minutes of guided stargazing through three different telescopes. People of all ages and backgrounds gather on the field behind Cahill to see planets, the moon, and other astronomical objects in new detail.
