What do you associate with Halloween? Trick-or-Treating, costumes … astronomy? After all, Halloween is an astronomical holiday!  During this program you will learn the history of Halloween and how it fits into the seasons as a “cross-quarter day”.  We will also explore the night sky and learn what planets, constellations, and stars will be out on your Halloween evening.

This show is suitable for all ages 8+, all ages are welcome
