๐ Dark Sky Night 7: Celestial Events

๐ Dark Sky Night 5 & 6: A Weekend of Wonder
This weekend, make an effort to spend time away from all forms of artificial light and give your body a rest. Shut your computer, turn off notifications, and listen to the sound of frogs and the crickets at night. Look up at the sky, let your eyes adjust to the darkness, and see how many constellations you can spot.
๐ Dark Sky Night 4: Capture the Stars with Your Camera
Dark Sky week is the perfect time to capture the constellations with your camera. As the moon wanes, leading up to the new moon (and solar eclipse) on the 8th, we'll have the opportunity to see the stars with minimal lunar illumination. This makes it easier to focus on fainter celestial objects and achieve more detailed images of the night sky.
