Celestial Connection: Stargazing in Nature
Step into the night and experience the magic of the cosmos as we gather for an evening of stargazing and nature appreciation. Away from city lights, we’ll explore the beauty of the night sky, learning about constellations, planets, and celestial events while surrounded by the stillness of nature.
As we observe the stars, we’ll also take in the nocturnal wonders of the natural world—the rustling of leaves, the calls of nighttime creatures, and the cool evening air. This event offers a chance to slow down, look up, and connect with both the universe above and the Earth beneath our feet.
Whether you’re a seasoned stargazer or simply curious about the night sky, this experience is open to all. Bring a blanket, a sense of wonder, and let’s explore the cosmos together!
