Astronomy on Tap – In person event Aug. 11!

Astronomy on Tap is having their first in person event on Aug 11! This sounds like a great event to get back out and see some live in-person talks. According to the info they are going to try and have some telescopes set up for moon observing which sounds fun! I have copied the event description below:


“Join us for a special event this August and our first in-person event since March of 2020!


We'll have four 10-minute lightning talks on a variety of topics over the course of the evening while relaxing on the amazing outdoor patio at the Michigan Wildlife Conservancy.


Feel free to wander the grounds before, during, and after the event, but make sure you grab a drink at the Wildlife Pub to enjoy while you do!


We'll have some trivia questions and we'll finally be able to raffle off some physical astro-themed prizes instead of virtual gift cards!


We'll also try to have a telescope or two set up on the grounds to do a bit of moon crater viewing and simple night sky observing.



The Perseids meteor shower will also be at its peak around this time, so look to the sky for some shooting stars!”
