Star Gazing was a stellar event

Thank you the Los Angeles Astronomical Society for a wonderful event this past Friday. Thank you to all of our volunteers, for the yummy baked goods, to La Estrella Taco Truck for giving back to our sixth graders, and a special thank you to Anvi Kevany for chairing this great event. Families who attended were able to view the Moon up close and personal, see the Great Orion Nebula, and view Jupiter close enough to see it's stripes and two of it's moons. If you would like to gaze at the stars some more, check out the Free Public Star Parties which are held monthly with the assistance of the Los Angeles Astronomical Society and the Los Angeles Sidewalk Astronomers at the Griffith Observatory.  "They are a chance for the whole family to look at the sun, moon, visible planets, and other objects, to try out a variety of telescopes, and to talk to knowledgeable amateur astronomers about the sky and their equipment."
