About the event
A docent will point out night sky highlights and upcoming astronomical events. This is followed by a fulldome video presentation.
Modern astronomy uses light that the human eye cannot see. This includes gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet light, infrared light, microwave radiation, and radio waves. All of this is “light,” just at shorter or longer wavelengths, with higher or lower photon energies. And we learn a lot about the Universe’s most energetic objects using invisible light: quasars, supernovae, neutron stars, black holes, and much more.
