Spend a night with us under the stars! NPCA has teamed up with our friends at the Mojave National Preserve Conservancy, the National Park Service and the Pasadena Olde Town Astronomers for a night of stargazing on November 5, 2016. Bring your sleeping bags and camping gear to this star-struck event, at the Black Canyon Group Campground.
The night will begin with a sunset across the horizon of Clipper and Fenner Valleys. Experience the night sky like never before. Astronomers will bring high-powered telescopes for everyone to get up close to the Milky Way and planets. In addition to the enjoying the night sky show, take advantage of hiking trails and learn about the wildlife around.
We’ll provide the food, drink, campfire, and giant telescopes.
This even is sponsored by Subaru.
