100 Things to See in the Night Sky: U-M Judy & Stanley Frankel Detroit Observatory
Want to know the name of that star? How do you find constellations like Orion, Gemini, and Taurus? When can you see the planets? In this family-friendly presentation based on his book of the same name, astronomer Dean Regas will demonstrate the basic tips and tricks to identifying stars, constellations, planets, and more in the night sky. You’ll soon be on your way to finding 100 Things in the Night Sky.
This event is part of the Observatory’s Saturday open house programming. Join us 12-11 pm and tour the historic building, view our exhibits, and participate in hands-on astronomy activities. And if weather permits, you’ll be able to view the sun with our solar telescope and the night sky with historic and modern telescopes. Families welcome, admission is always free, and registration is not required.
