About this event
Why is there no planet between Mars and Jupiter? Explore the story of the asteroid belt and how Jupiter shaped this busy region of space. With Mars and Jupiter appearing close together, volunteer naturalists will guide a discussion about solar system history and the rocky leftovers orbiting our Sun. Presentations will be at the picnic shelter, followed by stargazing in the parking area. The Longmont Astronomical Society provides telescopes. Bring a chair or blanket, a light jacket, and a red flashlight, and get ready to enjoy a night under the stars! Registration required. Register
