Discover Astronomy
Date: November 11, 2011, BPE, Austin Plantetarium, 6:30 - 8pm
Organizer: TBD
The plan is to bring an Inflatable Dome Planetarium to provide an interactive experience for our scouts! The dome is eighteen feet in diameter on the inside, with a footprint of about 25 feet, and is 12 feet high. The interactive program will be led by a Astronomy Educator to explore the stars, constellations and planets visible in the sky tonight. The boys will then get to go outside and view the actual stars through high powered telescopes provided by the Austin Astronomical Society. The program will be geared to help the scouts earn their Astronomy belt loop or pin."
