Star Party and Perseids Meteor Shower!

Event Date: 
Sat, 08/08/2015 - 9:30pm

Join us at Wallisch Homestead, a nice dark sky site, to observe Saturn, double stars, star clusters, constellations, and more with NJAG member telescopes.

We will also be searching for meteors from the Perseid Meteor Shower! To view the Perseids, you may want to bring a blanket or reclining chair to comfortably get a good view of the sky. Click "more" below for additional info.

Quadrantids


The Quadtrantid Meteor Shower comes to a peak this week - morning hours of Thursday, Jan. 3. 

Where can I view the Geminids?

We are getting a lot of questions about where people can go to view the Geminids.

We do have our regularly scheduled Telescope Night on Thursday, Dec 13 (Cleck on "Events" above) - the shower will be underway at that point so you might catch a few early ones.
