SUMMARY:2025 ELO Public Star Party - Lunar Eclipse
DESCRIPTION:Come view the Total Lunar Eclipse with MAS.\nThis event is cancelled if cloudy.\nDuring a Public Star Party\, we use our array of telescope platforms to show you the wonders of the night sky. Our primary goal during a star party is to view stars\, star clusters\, galaxies\, nebula\, planets and maybe a comet or two\, all observable through our telescopes. There may also be a presentation or Q&A session at a public event. Public star parties typically run from 7:00-10:00 pm\, although we tend to stay later during the summer months as the summer sunset is later. Note that the Park is open daily from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. The main gate to the park entrance automatically closes at 10:00 pm\, so please plan to arrive before then. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Public Star Parties are typically all-weather events. Even if it’s cloudy someone will open the observatory for a tour\, give a presentation or answer any astronomy questions you may have. If this is your first star party\, or it’s been a while since you’ve been to one\, please review the Public Star Party Guidelines. \nAnnually\, we also host all day events for the Spring and Fall Astronomy Day and the annual Camping with the Stars event.  Additionally\, we may schedule special events throughout the year for a unique astronomical happenings such as an eclipses\, planetary oppositions\, conjunctions or comets. \n*Other than our Camping with the Stars (CWTS) event\, registration is not required to attend an event.

SUMMARY:ELO Public Star Party - Features Speaker: Tim Carlson
DESCRIPTION:7:00 PM Featured Speaker: Tim Carlson\nTopic: NASA Juno Mission to Jupiter\nFor nearly 10 years Juno has been exploring Jupiter and its system. This mission set out to explore Jupiter’s atmosphere\, magnetosphere\, and moons\, to learn about the planet’s origins and evolution. Join NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador Tim Carlson on a journey of exploration and discovery\, as we work to better understand the planet and the formation of our solar system. \nDuring a Public Star Party\, we use our array of telescope platforms to show you the wonders of the night sky.

SUMMARY:2025 Messier Marathon - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:MESSIER MARATHON\nUnfortunately\, weather forecasts do not look favorable\, so this event is being CANCELLED.\nA Messier Marathon is an attempt to find as many Messier objects as possible during one night. The Messier catalogue was compiled by French astronomer Charles Messier during the late 18th century and consists of 110 relatively bright deep sky objects (galaxies\, nebulae\, and star clusters). \nThe first MAS Messier Marathon was held on March 13\, 1999 (Apr Gemini\, pg 4)\, and has been held annually at the Cherry Grove Observatory. The marathon is scheduled for the new moon weekend nearest the spring equinox with Saturday being the primary night\, and Friday being the backup night. \nAs with all Cherry Grove events\, the marathon is held only if the skies are clear and will be CANCELLED IF CLOUDY. See the MAS home page or Forum for the latest information regarding the star party status.
