Program Description

Event Details

NENA408

Stars figure large in our early American Identity - from the first flags of 1777 to the star charts in Ben Franklin's popular almanacs. Explore how the science of astronomy developed from the time of the signing of the Declaration of Independence right up to the present day. Learn where to look in the sky to see a star whose light began its journey to Earth 250 years ago and is only arriving now for us to view. Registration is underway. This program is cosponsored with the public libraries in the Town of Huntington.
