Hamptons Observatory and SOFO are pleased to present a 30-minute in-person talk by NASA Solar System Ambassador, William Francis Taylor, who’ll discuss the constellations and planets that are now visible. Afterwards, we’ll all head outside for a star party and enjoy a guided tour of the night sky through telescopes.

Program leader: Hamptons Observatory’s Senior Educator, William Francis Taylor. William has been a NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador since 2014, helping others learn about and appreciate the universe in which we live.

This program is for adults, teens, and  children interested in astronomy.

This event will only take place if the skies are clear. Feel free to BYOT—Bring Your Own Telescope. Tickets are limited.
