Description
Join the National Park Service and our partners for this special evening event celebrating the release of the first science images from the James Webb Space Telescope. Not only will you get to see the images, but visitors will also learn how the space telescope works, what it will explore, and even pick up some James Webb Space Telescope and NASA swag. Activities include spectroscopy and infrared observations of the sky in Southwestern Utah. The National Park Service will provide telescopes for a stargazing program after the first images presentation.
