Venus and Saturn set very quickly after 5 pm; the Moon is great; Uranus and Neptune are both visible but tiny in the telescope.

The event is from 5:00 - 7:00 PM. In case the sky is cloudy, no observations can be made and the event will have to be canceled.

Admission is free, families and children are welcome.
