Mars Attacks!

Mars fascinates us like no other planet so join us as we take our scopes out on May 20-22nd for our Mars Attacks Weekend.  With everyone focused on populating this planet, it is the hottest topic of the cosmos…. and don't forget Mars the rest of the year!

 

Go to the Lunar and Planetary Institute map for Mars and scope out your piece of real estate.   Even though we won’t see that kind of detail on that map but it will be a great conversation starter.
