Another Fun Event at the South Mountain Environmental Education Center

It was another fun event at the South Mountain Environmental Education Center as we presented Mars: Let's Go There.  An involved audience spurred lively discussions.  We were lucky during the telescope viewing afterwards as the clouds parted and we were able to clearly view Mars, the Ring Nebula, a few open star clusters, a globular star cluster, and even the Andromeda Galaxy was visible. Guests were also having fun learning how to personally operate our simple but powerful 8" Dobsonian telescope!
