Events at Brittlebank and Hampton Plantation

Tonight we have our almost-weekly Astronomy in the Park at Brittlebank park starting around sunset. Weather looks nice, and we're in for a full moon tonight. There's also a very bright overhead pass of the International Space Station as well.  Click here or on the image to learn how to see it where you are tonight. (Note: you'll probably have to set your location.)

Saturday night Hampton Plantation is hosting a stargazing event with the Lowcountry Stargazers. For more info, please see the Facebook event, or the SC State Parks website.

Dark Sky Astronomy still on (for now)

Tomorrow's Dark Sky Astronomy event is still on. Clouds will be an issue, but we are taking the chance. Please see our calendar to the right or Facebook for full event details.  If we have to cancel, we will post it in the comments of our Facebook event, and our calendar. Please check back before heading out.
