In conjunction with the White House Astronomy Night, Rocky Mountain National Park will be hosting our own celebration Monday, Oct. 19, at 6 p.m. at the Moraine Park Discovery Center. Join a park ranger for a thirty minute presentation about the wonders of the night sky followed by viewing through telescopes.
Seeing the Milky Way or a particular constellation can be inspirational for park visitors.In Rocky Mountain National Park, as in other parks, natural darkness of starry skies is an important resource of this special place.
