International Observe the Moon Night unites people across the globe in a celebration of lunar observation, science, and exploration. On September 14, the waxing gibbous moon will be 85% full and bright in the eastern sky early in the evening, allowing for excellent viewing (weather permitting.)
Join astronomers, neighbors, and new firends for storyelling, crafts, science, a campfire, and viewing our friend the moon. Use telescopes and binoculars to view the mountains, valleys, crater chains and vast plains: the Sea of Cold, the Sea of Crises, the Sea of Tranquility!
Revel in our constant companion, the moon - on the same night as fellow earthlings around the world.
Optional: Bring your own marshmallows for the campfire!
